We thought about buying tickets to the rodeo, but after finding out everyone over the age of 2 needed a $22 ticket, we decided to pass. There's just something about paying for a $22 for a 2 year old that just doesn't seem right. We figured we'd hold out a couple more years until we knew Em would enjoy it. Instead we headed over to the barn area to check out the livestock. We saw cows, horses, pigs and sheep. I was amazed at how clean all the animals were. I was expecting really stinky barns, but they weren't. I guess when they are "showing" animals, they keep them really clean. Who knew they actually vaccumed the animals fur? I learned lots of new stuff walking through the barns.
Before heading home, we stopped at some of the food stands and had some lunch. After getting home, we all took long naps. Being out in the cold wore us all out!
Sunday morning, Em and I had made plans to meet a co-worker and her daughter to see Beauty and the Beast in the theater. Em loves this movie so I thought she might like to see it in the theater. Just like last time, she did awesome. We did leave about 10 minutes before it was over, but that was mainly because it was naptime/lunchtime and Em was starting to get antsy.
After taking another long nap, we made some fun treats when Em woke up.. . chocolate covered pretzels with sprinkles. Em doesn't care for pretzels, but I thought she might like them if they had chocolate and pretzels on them. Well, she didn't. She just wanted to dip the pretzels and then lick off the chocolate and sprinkles. It ended up being a messier project than I anticipated, but it was still fun.
After our treat, we just enjoyed the rest of the day playing outside. It was a nice 70 degree day today!
