Bates Nut Farm

As always, when at Grandma and Grandpa’s house we visited Bates Nut Farm. The kids love the animals, and I love the homemade chocolates…
Elora filled Marion’s pockets with corn so she could feed the animals better. Marion also tried to climb into the sheep pen. Luckily it was the sheep, because one of her shoes fell off inside the pen and if it had been the goat pen, I am thinking that shoe would have been eaten…
Oliver mostly enjoyed running and running and running… but he occasionally stopped to feed the sheep. He likes to feed the little baby ones that don’t get as much food, so it is my job to distract the big sheep so that he can get a few corn kernels to the baby sheep.
My sister Lisa was visiting with her kids, and the kids really enjoyed playing with their cousins. We even got a picture where everyone was looking at the camera! I said I wouldn’t buy them any candy unless they looked… Marion was the exception, she was too busy staring and trying to steal Amanda’s braces off her teeth.
