Date Day at Deana Rose Farmstead

At the beginning of 2013 Mark and I started Date Day with the girls.  Each month one of us takes each girl, we go our separate ways, and we spend the day together.  Sometimes it is just an afternoon, or a few hours, but it is one on one time with the girls. This month I was with Addison and Mark was with Lauren.  


Mark and Lauren went swimming at Legacy Park, lunch at Chick Fil A, then mini golfing at Paradise Park.  They had a very full afternoon.  Addison and I headed out to Deana Rose Farmstead...


with her little friend Jenna as well!  These two are so sweet together.  Jenna's family just moved into a new house, so I offered to take Jenna for the day so they could get some things settled.  Addison was so excited to pack a lunch for Jenna, have Jenna ride in her car, and to feed baby goats together.  


When we first arrived we headed straight to the baby goats...they walked like this most of the day.  


Bottles full of milk, ready for goats.  


Jenna's goats were very calm and Jenna did an awesome job feeding them.  Addison's goats were jumping all over us, so Addison was in my arms screaming, trying to feed goats at the same time...


We decided to move outside the fence and feed them from there...that is more Addison's style!


Then we saw the cows, roosters, chickens, bunnies, pigs, turkey's, and horses.  


After a while the girls were finding places to pose for me and smile.  They know I love pictures.  


Then we hit the playground and spent a lot of time here.  Addison was bargaining for 5 more times down the slide.  She won that fight.  About this time Addison and Jenna started fighting like sisters, but they are quick to forgive and forget.  They had so much fun together.  We spent about another hour there before getting brownies and ice cream and then heading back home.  They said they were tired and wanted to nap in the car, but as soon as they sat down and got cooled off they were laughing and giggling...and not napping!  Oh, well.  


These pictures are blurry (not sure why because they were taken with Mark's I-phone) but that does not matter.  It helps us remember what Mark and Lauren did for the day.  Swimming, Chick Fil A, golf and ice cream.  


Lauren said she had the most fun golfing, and Mark said he had the most fun swimming.  Great memories and a great day with the girls.
