Day on the Farm!

Sarah here... here are pictures from last Saturday at Day on the Farm and Elijah's birthday!

The look on his face says it all! He LOVED riding the horse! (Sign for horse! :))
Rebekah

Maggie, Anna's friend and next door neighbor who joined us for the day.

Isaac

Elijah was fascinated by all the animals!

He got mad when I wouldn't let him touch the pig though! :)

Rebekah the sheep!


Hand Prints
Every year, the hand prints are done on a different design. The helpers than label the hand prints with the child's name and city. Then they are displayed throughout the farm. Above, Anna and Maggie found theirs from last year. Below, Rebekah is just about ready to put hers on. It is a very fun tradition! We've gone 10 out of the last 11 years, so if we looked long enough, we'd be able to find Sarah's hand prints from when she was 2. :-)

Our Family Picture! Thankfully the ones with Ashley last night turned out much better (we hope anyway! Haven't seen them yet!)! :)

Rachel did an awesome job shaking the cream to make butter!


Elijah's birthday cake!

Jonathan didn't care for the cake!

Elijah didn't really care for it wither.. until we started filming him, then he ate it just perfect!! That's Elijah for you!

Looks like a great way to celebrate your birthday. Love the picture of him not wanting cake :) What a stinker to go for it when the camera's on then! Happy birthday Elijah!!
