Country roads, take me home.

After dinner most evenings, Hubs and I load up the kiddo's and take them for a walk on a county road across from our house. They sit in the strollers, enjoying a cold treat for a duration of the ride. It is one of the rare times that my five-year old will comply with being in a stroller. We bribe him with Fudgesicles. Works every time.

Within an 800 meter stretch, we get to see lots of farm animals. Which also means we get to see quite a few animal babies this time of year. Amongst the cows, horses, sheep, dogs, cats, goats, and other common animals; we have a new little donkey that arrived a couple of weeks ago. Turner and Lauren really enjoy the trip out to see it. It's so cute!

I haven't been able to take a good picture of it, but it looks just like this!



We live in an Amish community and we really enjoy it. The families that live near us always wave to us as we pass by. The kids enjoy seeing the Amish children out on their lawns playing games, climbing trees, and running about.

Oh, and I can't forget the phone booth that is in the middle of nowhere! I will definitely have to post a follow-up pic for you. I tried to get a picture of it the other evening, but it was occupied and I didn't want to be rude.

We are very lucky to live in the country and get to enjoy all of the animals without having the responsibility!
