Madison's Field Trip to the Farm

A couple weeks ago Madison's preschool class went on a field trip to a local working farm. Anyone who's met Maddie knows of her obsession with farm life, especially horses. Needless to say when they announced they were going to get there by riding a bus, she was sold! It was all she could talk about for weeks, and finally the day arrived for her to go...

 A HUGE thank you to Sophia's sweet Mama who chaperoned and took all these precious pictures of the girls.

Listening very carefully how to get those corn kernels out...
 It is spring time on the farm and there were TONS of baby lambs, chicks and ducks.
Look at those sweet little lambies!

 Madison really thought the baby pigs were cute... until she got close enough to smell them. LOL.

She told me, "Those pigs are sure cute, but stinky."
They demonstrated how they shear the sheep and spin the wool into yarn. Madison brought home her very own piece of wool.
 Soft baby lamby...
 Pet the hens and got to pick an egg out of the hen house...




Madison LOVED her field trip to the farm and is convinced she will someday own a farm of her own. She told me, "Mama, when you come to visit my farm I will teach you how to ride horses. We'll go riding together!" I love that precious girl. LOL,
