Lucky Ladd Farms

My mom and I took the boys to Lucky Ladd Farms on Friday. They were open for an Easter Celebration this weekend. Carter was super excited about the egg hunt. We tried to go to one at the Brentwood Library on Thursday afternoon but it got rained out. We had shown up anyway and Carter got his hand painted with an Easter egg (which took A LOT of coaxing - he was scared to death, just like he is of the Easter bunny). Then we showed my mom the beautiful library where the boys go to storytime and waited out the hail (it seems to hail every time it rains lately).

Anyway, Lucky Ladd was doing a continuous egg hunt in the field near the entrance so we did that first. Carter was a pro at collecting eggs ...


And Rylan joined right in (this was his first Easter Egg hunt) ...


"Look what I got!"


"You caught me. I'm grabbing as many eggs as a can as fast as I can!"




"I'm so proud of all these eggs!"


"Me too!"


"I know I can fit in more!"


"Just one more."


The eggs were empty and we got to turn them in for a prize bag. The prize bags included a coloring book, alphabet cards, and bubbles.

After hunting eggs, the kids visited the petting farm and fed the animals. Some of the sheep were dyed ...




Carter climbed up on this horse and kept yelling "Giddy Up!" ...



Carter had fun bouncing around on these cows. They also have the big balls with handles but these are a lot easier for our little guys.


The giant corn box was a hit again.



Carter tried burying himself in the corn ...


Carter liked being up here for about 10 seconds and then got really scared ...


These tires were more his speed ...



We stayed about 3 hours. The boys were slowing down by then but they still didn't want to leave. I was worn out!
