End-of-summer Adventures

A couple weeks ago, on a hot, hot humid day, my parents took us to the Land of the Little Horses. We had a lovely time. :)
Before the show, Lydia got to pet some of the horses

And Toby rode a tractor

Here the horses show off

The roosters were super noisy. This guy crowed for us multiple times. Tobes is in awe.


Of course, the highlight of the day was that Lydia got to ride a pony.

The crew in our "adventure hats"


Last week we trekked to Lake Tobias. As we pulled onto Tobias Drive, Lydia lost her cookies in the back seat - poor thing gets motion sickness. So, she entered the park in underwear and sneakers. Thankfully we were able to purchase a big tshirt at the gift shop for her to wear for the day. Gramma and Grandpapa met us there and we had a lovely time with them enjoying the animals.
Gramma gives the kids a stroller ride while a llama was strolling by.

This sweet, tame llama came back to haunt us at the petting zoo - he took a bite out of Gramma's hat!

The petting zoo animals were very "friendly" (some even got a little fresh ;)

Toby REALLY wanted to get into the bears' cage to play with their big red ball

Checking out the birds

The kids also had a blast at the playground there. If it weren't for naps (and the crazy bees!) we could have stayed all day.
