Mommy and Dylan at Hovander

Mommy took Dylan to Hovander on Thursday which was a blast. Hovander is a huge park with farm animals and a big garden so Dylan was introduced to all the different farm animals, tractors, and flowers.

While we were there, Dylan saw cows, horses, sheep, goats, chickens, rabbits, a turkey (with an attitude), and some very loud roosters. There are even peacocks. Dylan was fascinated by the animals (he also kept wanting to sign them all as "puppy" which we'll have to sort out) and it was great for Mommy to see Dylan have such an exciting lesson on animals. Since Mommy is planning on putting in a garden next spring in the field behind the new house, she loved looking at all the variety of plants and some of the techniques used by the WSU master gardners who work there.

Of course, we also played on the big toy which included swings...very important. We are definitely going back!

We've included a few pictures. As you can see, Dylan really enjoyed his time there and it was a great time for Mommy too.

Hey Mom! This goat likes me!



















Come on! Show us those feathers!















I like driving the tractor. Okay, it's really just for show and what you don't see is Mommy holding on tightly to my back.














I'm so darn cute. Can we go swing now?
