Down on the Farm!

One beautiful April day, Kit and I went to the farm so that
he could feed the animals. It is always fun to see the horses
and the burros. The animals know Kit and they also know
that when he comes into the barn, he is going to give them
food! The burros love apples and are very disappointed
when no apples are given to them.

Legend immediately came to the barn knowing that he was
going to get his special grain! He's so gentle and friendly.

There is a process when Kit feeds the horses. Legend has
to go into another part of the pasture to eat his food, or Lady
would eat it! Here, Cody is wondering why his food isn't in
the bucket!

Lady has to be put into a separate stall to eat because no
one else would get any food! She bites and scares the other
horses away so she can have their food.

Cody is in his special eating stall. It is incredible how
much he has grown!

burros.

The burros are looking for their apples, so they head to
the barn once they know that Kit has arrived. They are
such sweet animals!

Can we have some grain too...like the horses?

Waiting patiently!

Oh well, no apples, no grain, just hay. Better than nothing!
The burros following Kit and the hay remind me of the
famous Pied Piper! No pipe, just hay!

Once Kit started the leaf blower to clean out the barn
floor, Cody ran out of the barn to wait for the quiet so
he could finish eating. But the noise certainly didn't
bother the Burro Leader!!!

It was fun seeing the animals, then taking a walk around
this part of the farm. I'm so happy that Kit enjoys his
work.
