The kids are back in school, which is usually a sign that summer is coming to an end!
My summer was kind of uneventful!
Anything that involved walking any distance at all was pretty much out to the question.
So no fun excursions, hiking, walks, the fair, etc...
all because of my knee surgery.
I did get one fun mini-trip out of the summer.
The beginning of September I finally got the o.k. to ditch the crutches,
so my daughter and grandkids and I ventured off
to a fun park/zoo/farm in Mankato called Sibley Farm .
I heard about this amazing park, through my friend Audreys blog, Check it out here.
We got to Mankato about lunch time,
I thought it would be fun to go to the Mall's food court where there is
a very cool carousel (the kids rode twice).
I wish I would have taken a photo from further away,
there are lot's of fun animals to pick from...
but Carson chose "the bench" for both rides.
Silly boy!
After a good lunch, it was off to the park we go.

if you look really close you can see Audrey inside the tractor.

Pigs... not real :)
another fun tractor to climb on
fun on the slide
a climbing area that looks like corn stalks
The animals on Sibley Farm include
alpacas, calves, goats, horses, pigs, lambs, & chicks.
Carson was feeding the sheep here.
The only down-fall was the extreme heat, it was a 90+ day, UGH
cooling the kids off
then off they go for some more fun
Posing on the cow on our way out of the park.
I highly recommend this fun Park for a daytime excursion,
lots of things to play on, animals to pet & feed and some paths
to walk on, adorned with beautiful gardens
