Family Fun
What a gorgeous weekend it was.
It was a fun, fall family farm type of weekend for us!
A visit from Tyler and his Mommy was the highlight of Saturday.
We took Tyler to a local farm that has opened their doors as a "Family Fun Farm".
They turned several acres of their farm into a play land for children of all ages...
with a huge hay bale maze....
through the castle door and into a labyrinth....
There were pedal cars for young...
and old....
(yes, that's Hubbs on a pedal tractor, racing with Tyler)

rubber duck races...
(water pumps on water tubs with gutters for the ducks to float down)
a cow train...
(How cute is this? I think I'll have to procure a few white barrels and make one of these!)

a hay mountain with slides...
The creativity that went into this attraction just amazed me.
Nothing high-tech, just good ole farm stuff.
I love simple, fun activities like this!
Once back home, we made our rounds on the gator and visited all of the animals.
Ritz treats for the goats....
And lots of Ritz for Tyler, too!
Tyler at two is everything a two-year-old could be....
capricious is the best word I can think of!
