Father's Day Weekend

For Father's Day weekend we were invited by our friends Joe and Lisa (and their baby Anna) to go to their family farm in Virginia. So we loaded up the car and went to enjoy some peace and quiet - well, as much peace & quiet as one can have with a baby and a toddler! Ben had talked about going to "Joe's farm" all week and he wasn't disappointed. Here are the pictures from our weekend.

Anna and Kate relaxing while we unloaded the cars.

Farm life made for very early wake-up times for Kate & Ben (they didn't get the memo about the aforementioned "peace and quiet"). Here are Daddy and Kate taking a very early morning stroll.
Joe and Ben on the "scooter." Ben loved the scooter!

Ben looking a little glum while Max & Ruby is playing in the background.

Checking out some baby cows. I had no idea how smelly baby cows are.

Ben and a horse named Lenox.

Ben & Dino. Dino liked to eat peppermints, which Ben thought was hilarious.

Baby Kate and Ronan. Ronan liked to show his teeth, which we used as a lesson about oral hygiene with Ben.

At the Veritas Vineyard in Afton, Virginia.

Ben found some playmates at the winery. There was a bit of a dispute because Ben wanted the gazebo to be an animal kingdom, but the little girls insisted it was a princess castle. The boy on the far right was called "the pirate" by the little girls for some reason.





Happy Father's Day!!
