Leah and I had our first Girl's day out.  We went out on the town while the men-folk (papa and Finn) stayed at home.

Here we are ready to begin our adventure.
Mama and Leah's day out

Every time we see a bus, Leah points and says she wants to go on the bus.  We began by going on a bus ride (Leah still talks about it 2 weeks later!)
Here Leah is waiting at the bus stop.

We then went on a train ride (only Leah's second).  Here Leah is very excitedly pointing to the train is coming, and here she is on the train pointing out the cows as we pass them.

Look, the train!

After an very long train ride of 15 minutes, we go off the train.  What girl's day out would be complete without a great meal.  We each had a sandwich, and Leah got to have lemonade and an ice cream!

A very good start to many more to come.

Well, here are some pictures from Open Farm Day.  Large dairy farms partnered up with dairy companies.  THe result was a fun day of pony rides, face painting, cow feeding, toy tractor riding. And free samples of yogurt (OK, it was sponsered by the milk companies)
