Middleton Place


Yesterday was a perfectly lovely spring day.
My friend, Rachael, invited us to join her and her two boys
on a trip to Middleton Place,
a former rice plantation in the Charleston area.
Here are a few pictures of the wonderful time that we had.

Lots of spring daffodils .

marvelous piece of engineering

more stairs :)

the pigs on the farm

Olivia was not afraid to milk the cow.
She grabbed on with both hands.

Noah on the other hand, was slightly apprehensive.
Two fingers and that's it. :)

This baby sheep was only 15 minutes old.
It was so amazingly sweet.

One last tree climb before we left.
