Our Little Farm Girl

Saturday we spent the day outside at Kim and Bubba's. Kaylin really thought she owned the place going from pen to pen to see the different animals. She saw cows, pigs, horses and numerous cats. She was really not afraid of anything, except Kim and Bubba's "gentle giant" Molly. Molly is a Belgian horse and is HUGE. She is super friendly and just wanted to tell Kaylin hi, but Kaylin was not having it. Kaylin really wanted to play with the cats, yes Kim I said cats, but they were all scared of her. Kim's dad Daryl and Bubba rode their horses around in the pasture and Kaylin got to watch that too. Kim and Bubba's black lab, Maggy, made a great babysitter. Wherever Kaylin went, Maggy was right behind her. Later in the afternoon, Bubba got the tractor out to give the horses a round bale of hay, so he gave Kaylin a ride. She loved it, and was upset when it was time to get off. I told her that Grandpa Sparks would not be very happy that her first tractor ride was not on a Deere, but oh well. Kaylin had a wonderful time, and was extremely exhausted when we got home. Here are some pics of her "adventure".


Checking out the cows, they were bottle fed last year,
so usually come right up to the gate!
