With Leilani taking a winter break from preschool and me being swamped in work, we really needed a day out to do some socializing and playing. So we met up with a wonderful group of Mom's and their adorable kids for a playdate at
Paulus Farm's Christmas Cabin in Mechanicsburg.
This is a great place to get fresh local produce and delicious homestyle delights. But for children and their parents it is an awesome place to spend a few hours to play! They turn a greenhouse into a fun playground and have neat farm animals to watch and pet. All just for only $2!
Here are some photos from the day. The light is always amazing in the greenhouse and so I brought the camera. And since this day was for fun and not work, no retouching was necessary for this set of fun snapshots.
Gracie in the much loved box of corn. It is amazing how long a box of corn can keep children busy. In the fall they also have a box of soy beans. Such a great alternative to the messy sand box. We eventually had to remind the kids that there were a lot of other things to play with in addition to the corn.

Hay!
Maddy & her big brown eyes.
Gracie & Leilani looking like BFF's. So cute...
So the farm has these 2 ridiculously cute 1 year old Scottish Highland Calves. I spoke with a woman who was related to the owners of the farm about them and she led me in on a cute story. They named the smallest calf Braveheart and here is why. When the movie Braveheart was made the people of Scotland thought the fact Mel Gibson played the role was ridiculous because Braveheart was supposed to be a physically giant figure and Mel was so tiny in comparison. So they named the smallest calf Braveheart in the honor of that story.
Braveheart was very friendly and Leilani got to pet him and touch his horn.
Back to the corn again...
My silly silly girl... Love you!
Momma
