Farm life for City kids

Is city life making you and the kids crazy?! Need room for them to run, clean air, and farm animals? We didnt realize how much we needed it!  This past weekend we stayed at the Cottages on Mill Creek, (Round Top, Texas) and WOW it was AMAZING!!! 

I could not have imagined a better get away that is within 1.5 hours of Houston!  We stayed in Bliss Cottage, which was perfect for our family of four.  A master bedroom, a futon in the living room, a bathroom, and kitchen.  There was a tv, but we never turned it on!  I also was not expecting such a fabulous breakfast...muffins, quishes, fruit, cheese, oh my!  We ate it for breakfast and lunch!  

The activities were never ending!  The boys loved feeding the mini horses carrots that Sue (the owner) provided.  They got to fish for the first time...I think they scared the fish so much that if they could have jumped out of the water and run, the fish would have.  We walked only half the 35+ acres, finding cows, donkeys, pecans, and a tricycle with a flat (random but so much fun)! 

And to top it all off we just happened to choose one of the best weekends of the year!  It was the local Christmas Celebration... festive animal costume contests, santa in square, high school band concert, light parade, and street dance!  What a special trip, we cannot wait to go back!
