Today we took the girls to the Critter Barn, a local farm where they have lots of cool farm-ish animals for the kids to see and touch and play with. This time of year they also have a live Nativity scene in their barn. The characters weren't quite ready to play their parts when we got there shortly after they opened this morning, so we spent about an hour just playing with the animals, and the girls had a great time.
The favorite part was the cat room, I think. Dozens of cats just hanging out- all very friendly and used to children. We do not have a cat, and most likely never will- and the girls are fascinated with them.
I love Nora's expression here- she was just delighted.
Carolyn had a wonderful time just being allowed to be so close to the animals.
Nora was so cute petting the cats!
Tonight after dinner we let the girls watch the Polar Express while I folded mountains of laundry and Brad took a last-minute trip to Costco (can't run out of toilet paper OR Diet Dr. Pepper this weekend! Either would be a disaster! ;)) After awhile, they wanted to cuddle on the same pillow while they watched the end of the movie.
Warms a mama's heart. :) Love these girls. :)
