Less Words Wednesday: Down On The Farm + Instagram


Every week there are so many photos taken in our home, or outside the home; you get what I'm saying. It's hard to weed through thousands of snapshots and cut it down to the 5-8 that end up in each post. Just last week we went to the local Underwood Pick Your Own Farms and had a fun day out, thanks to Allegra. While the tractor slide and wooden vehicle play sets were a big hit, it was the petting corral that truly won Sabrina (10) over.
There are some minor attractions, mostly geared towards the younger (K-5) kids, including a hay bale ride, cow barrel train, and pedal tractor racing. I was surprised to see Jay squeeze into one of the 'larger' cow barrels, but not surprised to hear how he felt every little 'bump' through the mud around the fields- ouch!
Lately it seems like everybody is grabbing a camera; Jay has become addicted to Instagram, where he can adjust filters to his heart's content. While I was trying to snap a good shot of Sabrina and the baby goats he captured the slightly haunting goat portrait above. When we got home Truffles proved her strawberry addiction was not an isolated incident; rolling and rubbing all over the berry baskets for near a half hour.
(Left)Around the house Truffles(cat) and Nora(dog) have been getting a little more acquainted. Nora likes to pretend she doesn't notice Truffles lurking below the ottoman, then she springs up and growls when Truffles turns to walk away. (Right) Nora, Sabrina, and Jay watching The Brave Little Toaster Goes To Mars one lazy afternoon.

  2. Looks like it was a fun trip! I laughed out loud at "slightly haunting goat portrait". It's so true! I have been enjoying instagram and getting more acquainted with it... I had it for almost 2 years without using it. It's fun to play with, that's for sure. Your pets are ADORABLE!
