Dairy and Dinner

Today we went to Lucky Layla Dairy Farm with, you guessed it, our mom's group. Thank goodness for our group. I've made some wonderful friends, and we get to do things we'd never do on our own. Moving to McKinney without having and friends or family was a bit overwhelming at first, but I have been so blessed with the people I have met. I never feel lonely here, and Jackson and Cooper have lots of friends their age. It was the best decision I made to join the group through our church. Of course, I miss our family like crazy, and I am ridiculously jealous of all my friends that live so close to their families.
Back to the farm - it was nice. It's a small local dairy farm, and they mostly make yogurt and cheese from their milk. I think it was over Jackson's head, but I learned alot. Strollers were not really do-able there, so I carried Cooper for an hour and it was hot. I didn't get a single picture of the boys with cows like I had hoped. So, I will just try and commit the experience to memory. Both boys liked it - Jackson was equally interested in the cows as the gravel on the road. Cooper was babbling away and reaching for everything. He loved being held the whole time.
Anyway, since I have no pictures to show of our field trip, here are some from later on in the day...

Cooper liked his dinner tonight. Thanks, Rebekah, for the new recipe!

  1. Man, I'd love to be in your Mom's Group. What a blessing you have. And that little messy face with that enormous grin is irresistable.
