Rankin Ranch

Well there are so many great pictures that I can't post them all. But here is my friend Sarah Wilder and her family. Sarah has been one of my best friends since we were 10ish. We can't really remember. Me and my family started going to the Rankin Ranch as guests since I was Noah's age (2years).
Noah was in heaven. No fear with any of the animals. He kept asking what is next mama? In a little over 24hours we: swam, ate, bottle feed a calf, feed and held chickens, rode a horse, played with "new friends", went on a tractor, hay ride, hike, brushed a pony, made cookies, played in sprinklers, and much more. Noah never slowed down!


This is Emma May Sarah's other daughter.

Jacob had a blast too! He just wanted to keep up with brother.


Cabin sleeping. Both boys and I ended up in one bed together.


Noah is checking out the horses and Grandma and him are feeding some of the horses carrots. Noah quickly informed us that carrots are for rabbits and we persuaded him that horse like them too.



Tractor driving...




Jacob wanted in on the fun!


This is out in the meadow where we rode in the hay wagon for dinner before we left.



Noah in the cold sprinklers!

Adventures in California week one



Jacob wasn't too sure of the sand at first, but then there was no stopping him. We are at the beach by my parents house.

Seal Beach Pier after turbo kick boxing and coffee!



Jacob loves the swing!



The park at Seal Beach is literally on the beach and Noah had a blast with some other kids toys.
