Last Friday, we visited Suson Park, yet another county park that we did not know about until recently. This was a big find too. It is a regular park with the usual trails and playground, but then it also has great ponds for fishing and an awesome set-up of farm animals on display. They even have a milking demonstration on Fridays...all for free! You can bet that this will become a regular for us.
Mom joined us for our outing - yay! Here they are enjoying seeing different types of cows, mules, and donkeys. I liked that each stall had the name of the animal and then information about its breed. The donkey, Peanut Butter, had the absolute sweetest letter from a 10-year-boy hung up beside it.
This is Emma, who according to Lily, is "the most beautiful cow that ever walked the land".
Lily and William just enjoying the outdoors on a beautiful, sunny day.
Kicking back with Grandma after viewing bunnies, goats, horses, pigs, sheep... you name it... we saw it! (And would you check out those legs on that tall boy? Wow!!)
Farmers hard at work. I was actually holding William in this picture so I wasn't able to get both him and me in position, but it's not bad!
Lily's friend joined us mid-way through our visit. We went on the park's last Family Fun Day for the season. Because of the special event, the girls got to enjoy face (or arm) painting and a hayride. We just missed the pony rides, but we'll be sure to hit that first next time.
Lily and her friend on the hayride
The little island in the middle of this pond reminded me of the children's book
Make Way for Ducklings
Fishing for worms - these girls are not the least bit afraid of getting their hands dirty
Lily's friend catches a fish!
Lily catches a fish!
So proud!
