Little People, Big World: Our Visit to Roloff Farm!!!

Matthew's cousin, Heather and her son Riley, came out from Arizona to visit us on October 1-4, 2010. If you haven't seen the show on TLC called, Little People, Big World, this post may not be that interesting to you! I have been a fan of the show for the past few years so when I found out we were moving to Oregon, I knew I was going to be making a visit to the farm! Heather also likes this show and part of her reason for coming up to Oregon was to go to Roloff Farm! So when I picked them up from the airport we headed straight to Roloff Farm so we could make it to the farm on opening day hoping it wouldn't be so crazy busy!
So we got there and I was feeling a little star struck and the first person we see when we pull up was Amy Roloff-the mom in the show! So we got to take a picture with her, she was super nice!
If you go to the farm you have to ride the wagon tours so you can see the entire farm! This was our first wagon ride!
Oh Jeremy sighting #1-one of the children in the family!
Amy and Molly's garden!
The front of their house
The Men's Crisis Center complete with the cars they are working on
At the Old Western Town where we met Matt Roloff's parents-"Honey and Papa"
And our driver for our first wagon ride was Mueller (the twin's best friend who is always on the show as well!)
Molly's Castle (which Cayden wanted to go into)
The back of their house
Jeremy sighting #2
The pumpkin launcher which hurt Jacob and their friend, Mike a few seasons ago.

So thankful Heather was there to help Cayden since I'm fearful of things like this! I just got to take pictures of them feeding the animals :). Cayden was a bit hesitant at first!
But then jumped right in, I am thankful he isn't quite as fearful as animals as I am :)
They had some exotic animals there including a baby tiger.
After we saw the farm we went to go pick out pumpkins in the pumpkin patch! Cayden and I at the pumpkin patch!
Close up!
Trying to get Cayden to smile
Not so sure if this will wokr
There we go-our winning smile!
Wagon ride with the pumpkins!
Matt Roloff sighting #2
We had a great time at Roloff Farms! Will definitely be going back next year!
Thanks Heather and Riley for going with us! I am glad I had someone with me who was just as excited about it all!!!
