Cagle's Dairy Farm

This week I brought the kids to Cagle's Dairy farm. They got to pet and feed calves, ducks, goats and chickens. Here is Emma feeding one of the calves next to her friend Charlotte and Abigail.

Joshua's turn! He thought they were great!

Here is Jack feeding them.

We took a hay ride to see the cows. It was so hot and the poor tractor could not keep up. It died 3 times during our short trip.

The cows came right up to the tractor. They only needed a little help from the Border Collies.

Joshua got his second haircut and did so great! He has the cutest curls, but not for long.

All Done!! Such a cutie!!

Emma showing her brother some LOVE!! She loves him so much!

This summer we took a trip to South Dakota to see Bobby's relatives. Here is Joshua's first plane ride!!

Bobby's cousin Clint invited us over to see their new lamb. While we were there Georgia found a garner snake in the yard and the kids had so much fun playing with it.

The lamb loves Georgia. It followed her around everywhere she went. If she was not in view the lamb would start pacing back and forth!

This is the view of their backyard. This is when sadly my camera's battery died and of course I completely forgot to bring the battery charger. :(

I signed Emma and Jack up for swimming lessons with an instructor. Jack had 4, 15min lessons and Emma had 4, 25 min lessons. By the end of the week they both could jump in the pool come up for a breath of air and swim. I was so impressed!

Emma thinks she is a mermaid now and does so well swimming under water. She was even taught how to float on her back if she gets into trouble.

Here is Jack jumping into the pool!

And here he is swimming!!!

Jack having fun at Riverside Park.

Joshua enjoyed the fountains too!

Emma just started this thing where she always likes to pick up Joshua. For now there have been no accidents and he does not seem to mind it.

Oh look at that one!!
