Summer is here, school is out and mama’s already going crazy(er)! It’s going to take some getting used to again and like every year just when I do get used to things it’s going to be time for school to start back up again. (sigh) We decided last summer that we would set aside one day to only be spent as a family and that day is Tuesday! So yesterday we went to Grant’s Farm. It’s always a good time and a place where we can go for an hour to 2 hours and still be alive and kickin! It’s not like the zoo where you go for the entire day and then come back home ready to throw yourself out the nearest window from sheer exhaustion and stress from the kids crying every two seconds, ‘I’m hungry…I’m thirsty…he just looked at me…I have to pee…I’m hot….I have to pee again….I’m tired….I wanna see this…I want that…I have to pee again and again and again…’ Dear Lord children I’ve met hyperactive cocker spaniels with bladders the size of peas (no pun intended) that pee less! It makes you wish that nobody would say bad things about you after you put a diaper on an 8 year old so that you didn’t have to stop by the nasty, germ filled, public restrooms every 5 minutes. And yes, I would totally go there!
So you see a smaller park that has animals, a tram that you ride into the park in, goats to feed and loads of other cool things, that you only have to spend about an hour in to see everything, is much better for our family. Here are some pics of our day!
Check out the hair!
So as you can see we had a great time and the kids can’t wait to go back! What are your fun plans for this week?




























Fab pics and I really love the idea of a family day!
Sounds like a great family day! We’re trying to take a trip together every Monday-but it’s tough to come up with ideas!
Wonderful photos!
