On Friday Harrison's class got to go on a field trip and, lucky me, I got to go too! We went out to Superstition Farm, a working dairy farm, in south Mesa. It was way fun. You just had to get used to the smell ;)! We went on a hayride and learned all about cows. There was a hay maze to play around in. The kids also got to feed goats and horses, and pet and hold bunnies and chickens. I hate birds, they really freak me out. So I felt hypocritical making Harrison hold a chicken, so I could take a picture!These birds though were really quite tame and are used to being held, I imagine. There were some really beautiful chickens too with feathers that covered their talons and a mane that resembles a lion's. Some of Harrison's girl classmates held on to those creatures like they were cuddling a puppy or a kitten - gross. (I really hate birds!)
All in all, a fun day. The farm is open to the public too, on Fridays and Saturdays, if you are interested in taking your kiddos on your own.

Cute Harrison! The chicken picture is classic.
FUN!!! I still havent been able to take my kiddos there.
Bethany - you can go to the farm Mon-Thurs too. You just have to call to schedule a tour :). If you need a certain number of kids to "make" a tour, let me know. I would happy to go again.
Melody and I went there a few months ago-- it was a bit smelly and hot, but we enjoyed it!
