the farm!


Orson, Uncle Kent, and I drove to the farm. Family gathered to help celebrate Grandpa Bruce's birthday...
Look at Orson in the background saying Grandpa is "so big!"
Grandpa was a good sport about wearing the party hat Orson made...
Cousin Jack was Orson's favorite person. Jack introduced Orson to all sorts of new foods...

We took a fun, rainy walk around the farm.

The greenhouse was full of flowers...


Orson loved going up & down the steps...
And he enjoyed napping in Grandma's arms...
Orson sang while Uncle Kent played the piano...

Orson was excited to ride in the gator out to the pond...

The pond looked great...

Uncle Kent & Orson relaxed by the water...



Grandma took us to the zoo! The weather was beautiful. There weren't any crowds. This was probably due to the fact that we only saw a few animals. And they were all sleeping. It was hysterical.

Here's Orson & Grandma near an empty cage...

The flamingo was the most animated...

The emu didn't move at all...

The yaks were sleepy too...

This statue was our best photo opportunity...



We strolled down to Ralph & Patsy's homestead...


Patsy & the dogs (Sammie & puppy Annie) showed Orson & me their pond...



Goodbye Grandma, Grandpa, and the farm... thank you for wonderful time!
