We spent almost all of our spring break in Chicago with my parents so when grams called and asked if we'd go with her to This is the Place on our last day, we said of course we'd love to.
Plus there were baby animals!
The boys trying their hand at milking a cow.
Ethan was very interested in petting the animals and patiently and quietly followed them around until they settled down and let him pet them.
Isaac and Miles were less interested in the animals and more entertained by the little stream and the rocks they could jump over.
The baby chicks were the best because the kids could pick them up. Well, some of the kids at least. Isaac was having one of those days and the chicken house was "too stinky", the blacksmith shop- "too loud", the baby animals- "too boring". Oh well, can't please them all.
But it looks like we pleased some of them.
Isaac was happy to push the stroller though.
They all liked the school though and could have spent hours drawing on the little chalk boards.
Even Isla was into drawing.
We loved the "train" ride around the park.
And the little train ride around the lake- at least until that back train with grams, Miles, and Ethan derailed and kept going. That was a little adventure.
And who knew all those old-fashioned toys could be so fun and entertaining. A great end to our spring break and fun to get to do things with all the grands.
