A Trip to the Farm

I grew up in a teeny tiny town in the Midwest.  It cracks me up when I people say, "I grew up in a small town" and I ask them "how small" and they say, "30,000."  That makes 1,200 seem extra, extra teeny tiny if 30,000 is considered small!  ;)

We headed back there a month or so again, and OH how much fun we had!  I do a small number of mini-portrait sessions when I'm home, and it's always fun working with people that I grew up with. 

Miles is an old pro on the farm already, and Avah quickly became one.  She was obsessed with feeding the "neighs" apples.  It was the first word that came out of her mouth the second she woke up... "I want NEIGH!" And I bet the horses loved my kiddos as much as they loved the horses because my kiddos fed them so many yummy apples from the tree and corn from the garden.

Here is a little glimpse into our trek there.  We can't wait to go back in the spring!!  (As I'm typing this, Avah is sitting on my lap saying, "HI NEIGH!  HI NEIGH!" to the computer screen as she sees these pictures.)
