Old McDonald had a Farm

Full day today! Today was the last day of the Whidbey Island Farm tour. We had hoped to go yesterday but I forgot. Oops. With two kids in tow we only hit 3 farms local to the area. There was a lot to see! We started out at a Lavender Farm, lots of pretty flowers to see. Stinker wasn't a huge fan of this one though Little Man was mesmerized by all the colors. Next up was just a small farm, but had lots of animals to see. Turkeys, chickens and ducks in one pen held the kids attention though Stinker was a bit weary. As we approached the pigs she pointed and exclaimed! A bit more exciting then turkeys but not by much. The cows weren't much better. Then with an exclaim of 'Pretty!' we were at the peacocks. The farm favorite though was a little kitten, she warranted a second look. (No we can't have one Jeremy!)

The last was the favorite. An Alpaca farm. Sweet faced, soft, sweet alpacas. Ah! Heaven! Stinker was in love, as long as they didn't get too close. Though she wasn't a fan of one staring at her, that caused a quick scootch backwards across the deck. Rather comical to see. Sadly no pictures of today's fun! Was too busy wrangling one kid while my mom had the other.

Later after lunch I found a photo book I made when Stinker was about a year old. We were flipping though it when Stinker points to a picture. 'Daddy? Daddy!' Ah, she found daddy! She was rather thrilled with this and wouldn't let us change the page. Silly girl! She now has a couple pictures in her room of Daddy though I need to print some current ones for her. Wonder if she would like a little photo album. Hm.

Well long evening ahead of me. You wouldn't recognize this place sweetie, I finally unpacked those 2 boxes! About time.

And a picture for today!
