A Day at the Market

On Saturday morning, we went to the local farmer's market! We started off our visit with a hot breakfast on site. Simon and Laurie had homemade gravy and biscuits while Cort and Naomi had whole grain pancakes. As a bonus, Laurie and Simon enjoyed some chocolate milk from some local farmers!














After breakfast, Simon decided to get his face painted by a local artist. He chose a blue butterfly.














Naomi wanted to participate -- we were shocked to see how still she was during the application of her body art. And yes, that's a yellow ladybug.














Next, we got to pet some baby animals. We fed a baby cow ...














...a baby horse ...














(Naomi's "excited face" she learned from Granddaddy)














...and some baby pigs!














We had a fun morning, which was followed by a Sunday and Monday of sickness. After a Monday spent at several doctors' offices, we're hoping we're all on our way to recovery.
