Fun Birthday At The Farm

To say that Emanuiel is excited about his birthday this year is an understatement. He has been counting down the months and days to his birthday since Christmas. I'm not kidding. His birthday is March 25th but we had his party this past weekend at a nearby farm. This is where we celebrated last year with the "Birthday Bash in the Barn" because of torrential down pours. Well this year we didn't have rain so we were able to take full advantage of all the farm had to offer. I went simple with the cake and "pupcakes" as Clara Beth calls them. I had the bakery pipe green icing on them to look like grass and then put little farm animals on top.
Red gingham on the tables with baskets filled with party favors.

A little thank you sticker on each bag from the birthday boy.


We started off the party with horse rides and of course Emanuiel was the first one to saddle up.



Even Clara Beth took a turn. I was so surprised because she would not even get on the horse last year.




One ride wasn't enough so she partnered up with Bekah Grace for a turn around the pasture.





Here's Emanuiel with one of his best buddies from school. He and Matthew look like real cow pokes don't they.






I love this picture of Clara Beth peeking over the fence at the horses.






After the little ones rode the horses we all boarded the wagon for a ride around the farm.







This is the view Emanuiel had from the front of the wagon. He was helping guide the horses.









After our ride around the farm our driver , Farmer Will, dropped us off by the goats for feeding time.











Everyone grabbed a handful of feed and watched the goats nibble away.










By this time Emanuiel had become an expert at feeding goats and llamas.












After all that hard work on the farm everyone enjoyed pizza and birthday cake!














Well, the party may be behind us but this little guy will have memories from his day on the farm for a long time to come.
Until next time...
I hope you and your family are finding ways to make lots of memories.
They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.
Psalm 145:7
Robin
