Exploring Frying Pan Farm Park

Three words to describe our trip to Frying Pan Farm Park...FUN, FUN, FUN!!

Our friends, Tricia(mommy's friend), Ian (3 1/2 year old) and Maya (who's only 1 day older than Caroline) decided to get together for a play date at the park.


We decided to meet early that morning to avoid the intense heat of the day. Can you believe our weather...it's like we skipped spring and headed straight for the summer heat! Hopefully we will get back a few of those 70 degree days again before long.


Caroline LOVED the farm. Even though we are technically "city" people (living in downtown Leesburg) I think Caroline could be a farm girl at heart! She LOVED all of the animals. We saw pigs, bunnies, sheep, goats, ducks, geese, chickens, a HUGE turkey and even a peacock....OH MY!! Caroline was more than eager to reach through the fences to touch each animal. I had to make sure she didn't try to pull their ears, thinking they are like our one and only Mattie girl at home. I don't think these animals would be quite as understanding and patient as our special doggie Mattie!

Here are a few of our pics from the day spent with our city friends and farm friends alike. We will definitely have to go back and take Daddy for a visit...so much fun!

Oh, I almost forgot...our farm girl loved driving the BIG RED tractor...look out Green Acres!!

Love,

Caroline's Mommy
