Amish Hat...

Took a trip over to Amish country for a day of family, farms, food, friends and lots of fun! Followed the Stecky family out to Lancaster....
First stop was Rocky Acre Farm Bed and Breakfast located on a dairy farm. With cats, kittens, chickens and roosters roaming freely, the kids had a ball following them around while the 2 moms toured the beatiful, well kept/updated rooms. A small playground area and basketball hoop also kept the kiddies entertained. Before we left we took a peek in the big barn where the dairy cows were kept and our noses didn't mind that we only had a minute or so to peek!
Next stop was Diener's Country Resturant where we filled our bellies buffet style! (so yummy I didn't think to take many photo's here)
Last stop Sight and Sound Theater to see "Joseph". We had tickets for the first row of the balcony, which seemed to work out nice for the kids and was neat to see the flying scenes from there. So it turns out, I once knew the guy who played Joseph! During the first scene, I remembered I had heard Justin DeMartino (one of the sons of the missionaries we visited in Mexico on a missions trip 12? years ago) was involved in this show. So as all the brothers came down the center aisle after the first scene, I looked at each one them and realized it was Joseph I recognized! So besides telling my Hubby and getting teased about it the whole time, it was a really great show! When you start with a story of a life that God Himself wrote, success is eminent... but Sight and Sound knows how to put on a show!!  Grammy Z gave the kids each $5 to spend (of which daddy had to add a bit to ;) so the kids had fun shopping! Emma quickly picked out a little Joseph doll and Caleb chose a tie-dyed shirt (of many colors) that said Joseph on it. After taking some pictures outside with the sunset behind us, then Caleb taking some pictures and then Emma taking some pictures :) As the sunset, we took one last look at the farm fields of Lancaster and we were on our way back to good ole Jerz with peanut butter & jelly sandwiches and sleepy kids!
