Old MacDonald - Virginia Style

This April we made two visits to Yoders Market - once with Erin and Brian and once with Sarah and Sophia. We love hitting up their market for sandwiches and snacks and then wandering over to see the goats and other animals in "the yard". It took us a while but Harper has finally stopped looking at the pictures of the goats and calling them dogs. We are now 100% sure that they are goats and that they say "maw maw" (or at least they do in "Millie Moo's" book). Feeding our favorite "rasta" goat.

Harper really got the hang of feeding these guys...as well as the hand washing afterwards.



How can this guy even see?
These guys are not afraid...they stick their head thru these fences not even casting a worry about getting those horns back thru.
We all got turns feeding them-they will stand on anything for food.

Harper and Sophia travelling down the road to Yoder's - what sweet girls!
There is so much to see goats, ducks, chickens, turkeys and peacocks too!
Harper seemed a little saddened by the chicken coop.
Sarah getting a little snuggle in with Sophia.
She had them eating out of her hands.
Look at that tongue! (Their eyes are so creepy!)
