A Trip to the Farm

On Friday, we took a trip to Frying Pan Park where we used to go pretty often when we lived in Herndon.  Spring is always a great time to go to the farm because there are lots of baby animals on the farm to see.  As always, the girls love checking out the animals, riding the tractors, having a picnic, and playing on the playground.

We met the funniest little goat in the barn.  He LOVED the outfit Nina was wearing.  It was either something about the color or the texture of the lacey part of her top, but we were all getting a kick out of this little goat. I checked a couple times to make sure he wasn’t actually chewing holes in her shirt, and he wasn’t.  He just wanted it in his mouth and wanted to nibble on it gently.  Several other kids came over and offered the goat their jacket or shirt to see if he’d chew on it, but he’d inspect them but didn’t want anything to do with them.  However, he stood up on his feet for at least 10, maybe 15 minutes, with Nina’s shirt in his mouth.  It was hard to get her to leave the barn because she really felt like she and the little goat had a special connection.  She kept talking about missing her little goat and wanting him for a pet.  Very cute…
