Maelie and I visited the farm this week with our friend, Kris.
It was actually the dairy farm she grew up on, which made it even more cool…love seeing pieces of a friend’s life. 
And for a kid, there’s nothing that’s not to love about the farm…yes, I’m talking about Maelie. 😉 Exploring, discovering, getting licked by a cow, chasing kitties, running around, driving a go-cart (ok, ok so that one was more me!)…oh, we had so much fun!
“Grandpa” and “Grandma” R were awesome hosts…we were very, very spoiled and loved. We were fed some of the most yummy food I’ve eaten in a long time, we stayed in the coolest farm themed room ever, and they even took time to love Mae…lots of stories and playtime and some coloring and exploring everywhere.
She had the best time, and She. Loved. It.
WE loved it.
I had a hard time choosing our favorite pics, so you get a lot of them.
Our first stop was to visit the baby calves. She was a little hesitant at first but was definitely curious.
Up close and personal. She loved it, though…you can tell.
Mae loved the cats, even if most of them didn’t want to be caught. Grandpa caught this one for her. She is still talking about “chasing kitties”.
I was surprised this one just sat and let her pet it!
Time for a story with Grandma! This was the first time Mae had ever heard the story of Chicken Little, and she was very, very worried throughout the entire book. It was cute.
This was too sweet of a moment not to share. Kris sat down to play the Veggie Tales song on the piano, and Maelie sat right by her, “playing” and “singing” along.
I loved driving the go-cart…it gave me a moment of Indonesia again. And as a bonus, no one died. Always a good thing.
I didn’t get too many mommy-Maelie pics on this trip. I like this one, though, even if she is much more interested in the kitty.
What a FUN adventure…YAY for friends and the farm!
