Over winter break we visited my friend Heidi, along with Triton and Tux the horses and Chiffon and Paisley the mini donkeys! (And her dogs Missy and Scooby Doo!) All the critters were just the sweetest :) The kids weren’t quite sure what to think about the donkeys at first but were soon smiling and giggling at their silliness.

Meet Paisley.

And Chiffon.

The horses loved getting some attention and treats too!

Heidi gave us a tour of the barn and stalls too!

Then we took a little hike around her property. Even in muddy February it was beautiful and SO nice to be outside.

So. Much. Mud. The kids had a blast, I was really proud of Cassidy for being brave and wading through on her own. She did get a piggy ride towards the end though.

We followed animal footprints, found fox holes and mice tunnels, discovered all different kinds of poop and had such a nice time playing outside. Thanks for giving up your morning to spend with us Heidi :) I think I even had more fun than the kids!
