Not Back To School Day

Wednesday, August 18, 2010... our annual "not back to school" day!  We celebrated by having Orange Leaf self serve frozen yogurt for lunch and a spontaneous trip to Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead.  It's been years since we were here last and they have made so many improvements!  The girls picked up passport books in the "bank" and we headed through the farmstead checking all the "bank boxes" for questions and answers.  We played with the goats, admired the rabbits, laughed at the people who let the baby goats out of the fenced area (those double gates are there for a reason!) and reminisced about all the fun times we've had there in the past.  When the kids were little bitty Deanna Rose was a lifesaver - they could expend a TON of energy in a fun environment, and go home for a nap! Here are a few pictures from our day:

Soooo much fun! I like your tradition. We have something like that. The weekend before school starts is Sam's weekend. We do just about anything he wants.
