While I am continually going through and getting rid of things in the studio... I always seem to come across photos I still haven't scraped... I don't know what's up with that... but I do. At first I use to get mad at myself for not having them done... but now I look at them as little treasure for me to enjoy... I get to recount a memory and then scrap them. For this layout, I used Creative Imaginations Real Wood, their April sketch.... and some of those treasured photos I found recently while purging the studio...This is Tom's Farm... it's open every day, but it's one of our favorite places to go on a Saturday. They have a furniture/antique store... yummy restaurants... a candy store... a wine & cheese store... and their little fruit & vegetable market is amazing! But I love going with Rainee on the weekends because they have fun things to do... they have a craft fair... Tom's Mining Company... a live band... face painting... a little train ride... an old time carousel... tractor driving... a construction scooper... a toy gun shooting gallery... a pond to feed ducks... a magic show... and our 2 favorite things... the farm petting zoo... and horsey rides!!!
We don't go get our fruits & vegetables then leave... when we go... we are there all day. It's such a fun, Rainee & mommy Saturday afternoon thing to do. Rainee loves loves loves animals... so our first stop is always the petting zoo... which I can barely get her out of... I have to piratically drag her out to go on the horsey rides... which of course then she doesn't want to get off of... but she does... then we're off to do all the other fun things Tom's Farm has to offer... and by the time we're finished... we're both so exhausted we really don't want to get our produce.... but I bribe Rainee with a treat... and we make our last stop... because you can't leave there without getting all those amazing fruits & veggies!!!! On the way home Rainee tries... but because she is completely tired and completely happy... she falls asleep. It is always a great day whenever we go to Tom's Farm... I love Tom's Farm...
