Frying Pan Farm Park

We were lucky that Steve didn't have to work this weekend and we were able to plan a family outing. We were also extremely lucky that the weather was so nice this late in November! There are so many fun places to explore around our area, and today we decided to go to Frying Pan Farm Park. Some of Charlotte's little friends had been here before and we'd heard good things about it.

These pigs were so funny. We were standing at their outside pen looking at the mama pig when one little one walked out of the "piggy door," then another one quickly ran out, then 2 more, 4 more, 6 or 7 more after that. I guess once one went out they all thought it was a good idea! They just kept coming! We thought they might have been waiting to get fed, but when we went inside the barn and saw them again, they had plenty of food!


One of the 2 new calves born in mid October. Their names were Snickers and Reese's...so cute!

After seeing all the animals, we spotted a cool playground. Charlotte wasn't too interested but it filled a few more minutes of our morning. Then, we headed down the road to Reston Town Center to stroll around and grab lunch. Charlotte enjoyed watching the ice skaters and looking at the Christmas tree. We wanted to make it home before she fell asleep, so we headed home soon after lunch. We had to do some loud music playing and foot shaking to keep her awake but it worked! Overall it was a fun day!
