Friday morning Avery woke up early with a fever so she did not go to school and I was a bit worried the trip would be very unfun. We drove during her normal nap time, but since she had a lazy morning at home, she just stared out the window for half the trip. She perked up a little when we arrived and she saw the horses and Stephanie's crazy poodle, Harpo. We walked down to the barn to feed them dinner and "grass" (that's what Avery calls hay). My mom asked Avery if was a farm girl and she said "no" and then she asked if she was a city girl and she said "yes."
She adjusted pretty quickly to the farm girl life. After a few minutes outside, it was time for a bath. The pollen down in pine tree country was CRAZY. After we de-yellowed, it was time to snuggle up at watch Little Einsteins.
Avery hasn't rode a horse yet, but she does enjoy riding the gator. This time she insisted on driving it, but she's not strong enough to turn the wheel alone. She doesn't want your help either, so the experience can be frustrating. Papa always finds a way to make it fun by going too fast over too big of bumps :)
A few shots from the brunch on Saturday. L-R: Missy, Kristie, Ashley, me, Sheryl. We were all in college at the same time. Missy and Ashley went to NC State and Kristie and Sheryl went to that baby blue place across town, but had enough sense to marry men from NC State.
