Corey's Day on the Farm ~ 2012 (part 6)

.
The Food was GREAT - the kids had so much fun!!!  When we got done with the hay rides and the petting zoo, I said "lets get some sno cones" and Nathan didn't need another invitation - he loves ICE ...  so this was right up his alley.   He took off - ran right past the Deputy Sheriff and Deablo ... for where the sno cones were being made. 

 First he and Kaedyn both had Cherry, and Noah had Blue Raspberry.....
 After we went and practiced our Ropin' Skillzzzzz (next entry)...  we stopped in for lunch.  They had packed lunches for us...  we got a hot dog (with packets of ketchup and mustard in the bottom of the bags) ... a bag of chips, a cookie .... and either juice or water ....
 Then after they finished that - they got to pick orange or chocolate ice cream .... 
 Before we left to go back out for more fun, the boys had gotten some popcorn to snack on while we were out in the sun, and then before we left, after Nathan and Noah took their final rides on the horses, I promised Kaedyn we would go get one more sno cone before we left.  On our way across the un-even pavement - Kaedyn tripped and fell head first into the concrete... when he finally lifted his head (I almost wonder if he blacked out for a few moments) ...  his face was already covered in blood.

Course, Mommabear took over, I knew Dennis would get the other kids out of the road (it's where the tractors were running for the hay rides, and the horses for the horse drawn carriage) .... I just concentrated on Kaedyn.  I managed to get him over by the sno cone building and and asked if they had any paper towels or anything.  They didn't, so I was digging in my bag, thank God for Mom's Magic Bag .... and I got some wipes out.  I was vaguely aware of  a lot of people, mom's, staff... volunteers, even the Deputy Sheriff had asked if he could help .... they were all concerned and asking if we needed help.  I know someone had gone to get the medic ...  One thing about Kaedyn though, when he's hurt or not feeling well - NO ONE will do other than mommy and he'll actually go into screaming fits if anyone touches him.... not even Daddy can console him when he wants Mommy....and by the time the medic came with the first aid kit, I had gotten the bleeding to stop, his face and his hands cleaned up....  I cleaned it up with an alcohol swab and blew on it to help the sting out .... then put some antibiotic ointment on it - but he refused a bandaid.   The medic said "when you guys leave, come see me, I'll get you another cookie!"

Then they went to the ladies making the sno cones and Kaedyn wanted a grape one this time, and Noah and Nathan got rainbow ones.   That little itty bitty cut on his forehead caused a lot of hassle!
And of course they got cookies on the way out the door and to head home with.

But, we still have the rest of the day to finish with our photos!!
