Alex and I went on a MOMS Club field trip to Old McFaye’s Farm today. As soon as we got out of the car, Alex took off running towards the ponies. He was talking a mile a minute and was so excited! I was barely able to take pictures while I was running all over the farm trying to keep his hands away from the animals’ mouths. Alex is so used to big Kovu that he had NO FEAR of any farm animal!
 Watching his friends feed the chickens. |  He loved the horse. |
 Look, Mom! More chickens! |  Following a rogue chicken. |
 Alex wasn’t too interested in feeding the goat, but he loved watching him. |  I don’t think he realized Daisy was a dog. |
After letting the kids run around feeding corn to the animals, Farmer Faye took us for a quick little hay ride and to the back pasture to feed the sheep.
 Alex loved sitting in the wagon, until everyone else crammed in and it started moving! |  Deep in thought. |
 All the kids loved playing with the corn. |  Umm, Alex? You’re supposed to be feeding that sheep! |
Next, it was time for the pony ride! While the kids were taking turns on the pony, we brushed another pony’s hair and checked on all the chickens and goats again. Then we washed up and attempted lunch. Alex was way too interested in the animals to eat much. Good thing we picked up Daddy for some Chick-Fil-A on our way home! What a busy day!
 Showing the pony his comb. |  I love the expression on his face. |
 Alex was not so excited about the pony ride at first. |  He was holding on like a pro once she started moving. |
 Hey, that wasn’t too bad! |  We couldn’t get him to smile, but at least he didn’t scream! |
