Down on the Farm

Ryan’s super-secret date kicked off late this morning around 11 a.m. With a shared love for animals, Ryan knew planning a date to Green Meadows farm to pet many different farm animals and pick out a pumpkin would be right up my alley!

After buying admission tickets we were given super awesome neon green stickers to wear on our tour of the farm.

While waiting for additional group members we had fun entertaining ourselves!

First up was milking a cow. Did you know cows eat approximately 20 pounds of food each day!? That’s a whole lotta hay.

I loved petting all the different animals and holding a duckling and a lil’ baby chick!

It was tough ranglin’ a duck, but we both managed to catch one.

(How cute is the little girl at the bottom left of that picture?)

The ostrich was huge (they apparently have a brain the size of a pea!) and made me a little nervous.

Our day down on the farm was wonderful. We picked up our pumpkins and stopped by Whole Foods for a yummy (and a little too filling) lunch. Now part two of Ryan’s secret date is about to begin (with a scavanger hunt!!!), so I’m off to get ready.

Happy Weekend!
