Roloff Family Farm

 There are so many farms to choose from within driving distance from our home. This time, we tried our the Roloff Farm. They are the family that was on Little People, Big World on TLC. The dad, Matt, was having a 50th birthday bash, so it was extra crowded. There were people visiting from Montana, NY, and even Canada. The TLC crew was there filming for a birthday special episode (so, if you watch the show, look for us in the crowd). :)
Who has a camel on their farm? This one, named Bethlehem, was cute, sweet and pretty clean.

Uncle Steve and the kids

Gramma graciously treated ALL of us to tractor ticket rides!!!!

"Two by two" animals

Matt, the dad, is very crafty...Noah's Arch

Can you see the pure joy on my son's face? Thanks again Gramma!

Really cool fort built by the Rolhoff boys and their highschool friends (no help from parents). Wow!

A pirate ship they bought for one of the kid's 8th birthday...What Chuck E. Cheese is not cool enough??? :)

Nana Roloff


Mr. Roloff built a little town with a full tunnel system underneath (the kids really wanted to go in them, but couldn't because of insurance/liability reasons)


Gramma...braces gorilla in the window

I love this llama, llama who needs a haircut to see his mama

A true velveteen rabbit...cannot even describe the softness (much softer than even a chinchilla)

Baby tiger

All smiles...she climbed to the top of the hay bale pyramid

"Hee, Hee! I got a spider to scare Papa."


The card that we made for Matt's birthday

Steve was brave with all the kids up there

The kids were trying to entertaining themselves while we waited and waited in the crowds

That place looks like a lot of fun. Were the crowds bad? Maybe a weekday trip...
