The Farm!

Our trip to Jamey's family farm was a blast! Caiden loved being with the animals and one of his best friends, Addi! Although it was hot, the kids had a blast with Hogan, Addi's cousin, swimming in the hot tub, chasing the chickens in the "chicken barn", watching the snake get killed, and riding the gator. We got to make the rounds feeding the cows in the morning and then gathering the eggs from the chickens in the afternoon. Caiden was worn out and took 3 hour naps each afternoon!

Some of the moments that made me realize Caiden isn't cut out for living on the farm:

-The first time he heard the rooster he said, "It's an elephant!"
-When Hogan was teaching him to take off his hat and say Yee-haw, Caiden said "Ee-Awe" like a donkey!

-He wanted to take his shoes off inside the chicken barn to clean out the shavings and poop, not realizing he'd be standing directly on it with his shoes off!

Thanks Jamey for inviting us! We had a blast and the food was great! Thanks to Caiden, I got to eat two servings of homemade mac and cheese!
