The Rest of Our Fun Weekend!



So since a lady comes in to get Grandma up every Saturday Morning, we try as much as possible to not be here while she is. So we all piled into the car at a few minutes to 9 (we did wake up at 8:10 so we made good time) with no place to go. Jon had made us wonderful peach smoothies so we ate that and took our first stop to home depot and then to Cameron and Amie's where we got shocked as you saw in the last post. Then we decided to go to This is the Place Monument. I have been wanting to go for a while now. Well, the last weekend they are open is Labor day weekend, so we missed it! They do let you go in and walk around, so we decided we might as well since we were already there. We went and looked at all the animals in the barn area.



This is one big Cow. It is actually an oxen and that picture doesn't do it justice. I think it was a little scary. He was massive.



Here is a baby cow. He was really cute.





So while we were looking at them this one cow started mooing a ton and then they all took turns doing it. Marcella thought it was great. Now when you ask her what the cow says she says mmmoo, not really annunciating but making the sound it is pretty funny. I hope you all have a great day! Thanks Kristin for staying with us it was fun!

Hah...it's not all fun. She was really constipated the other day (in fact, I think it was that same Saturday), and we had to give her a small suppository. That wasn't fun at all. But it's mostly fun, that's true.

awww! Marcella knows what sound a cow makes already! It's amazing how fast she is learning and growing. If I don't see her every week I'm shocked by all her new skills.

I think Marcella is going to wish she lived on a farm-you have seen so many animals lately. She looks happy as ever. I'm sorry about the later in the day activity. That happened to Owen when he was like 3 weeks old and it wasn't fun.
