Today we took a long drive up to Brooksville to meet up with some friends for a day on a farm.
Golden Rainbow Ranch may just be my new favorite place to visit. We learned all about the farm rules and then were turned loose! 🙂
We got to hunt for eggs.
I LOVED the bones.
The hayride was awesome.
Smell that sweet hay!
I fed the goats may times.
This guy was my favorite. He followed me all over the place.
You have to watch out where you step or your shoes will bring home goat droppings.
Hey Buddy, Hey Kid!
Quite the goat whisperer.
Emmerson even joined in the conversation.
I got distracted by a vine. I was swinging like Tarzan until the vine snapped! 🙂
Miss Ali, who own the farm, quickly became my best friend. I had to show her everything!
She was so kind to oblige and allow me to lead for a while.
We took a fun hay ride around the farm and got the lay of the land.
Even their poodle got into the mix. He can ride the donkey!
I liked talking to the horse.
After lunch we went on an egg hunt in the barn. I found lots of eggs and shared them with all of the other kids.
Including Emmerson.
I found goats sleeping in a water trough. I thought that was HILARIOUS!
I led some of the kids through the woods looking for eggs. Of course we didn’t find any.
We fed miniature horses.
I was fascinated by the bone yard. A lot of the bones were from animals that the farm dogs killed. Some were from Miss Ali’s personal collection.
I really liked feeding the cows. I filled their entire trough with hay!
All I wanted to do was to milk a goat. Miss Ali tried really hard to convince me but i chickened out at the last second. Maybe next time!
The older kids were being silly and pulling people in the little wagon. I had to be a part of that.
We had a big hay fight and then sat down for a break.
Wrapping up the day. It was so much fun. I got to bring home an egg that i colored and a neat picture frame art project. What a grand time we all had! 🙂
