Going To The Farm ...

I ended up going to Alberta ...to celebrate Ella's birthday ...

instead of just taking the kids to a park to play ...

decided to go visit a farm for kids for a few hours ...

"Butterfield Acres"

Posing for Grandma ...

We spent quite a bit of time in the bunny cage ...

 these bunnies were quick ...

escaping and hiding from all the kids ...

They all enjoyed being in the area with the goats ... kids  and the sheep ... the best ...

Ella wasn't to impressed being in the pig pen with the stinky piglets ...

one little piglet was chewing on Craig's shoelace ...

didn't stay in there too long ...

Craig was also showing Ella how to feed a horse some hay ...

So much for the kids to do here ...

tire swings ... horse ride made from tires ...

and peddle go-carts ...

This place is open from May - October ...

has many activities going on ... functions ... lots of animals ... play areas ...

Hope to go in the spring when all the babies have arrived ...

with all the grandchildren ... 

Maybe grandpa will come along as well ...

 as he has never had the opportunity to spend the day at the farm ...

Check out their website here for more information ...

Happy Birthday to my dear friend Dagmar ... !!!!
