Today Quinn and I took the Twins to Cochran Mill. I have heard about this place many times before but we have never been so we really didn't know what we were headed to but in the end we had a GREAT day. Cochran Mill has an animal rescue program and you can pay a small fee to see all the animals. This was right up Drew's alley. We were the only ones there that morning so the lady gave us our own personal tour. She even took some animals out so we could get a closer look and even touch. Drew's favorite by far was the alligator! After checking out all the animals they have a pond with lots and lots of fish that you can feed. The kiddos LOVED doing this. After we finally used up all of our fish food we embarked on a hike. We hiked about two miles - one mile in and one mile out. With two three year olds we weren't to sure how this would go but they LOVED it. They kept singing "we are going on an adventure". It was too cute. At the end of our hike we came to a waterfall so we let the kids get in the water. It was hot so this was much needed. Along the way we even saw a turtle. Drew thought that was great. Blakely liked the day but at one point said "When are we going to the mall?" That's my girl! I like nature but at the mall is where I would rather be! Anyway - after our hike we headed over to the picnic area because we were starving. They also had a playground so the kiddos were thrilled. After we left Cochran Mill we decide to go for a little drive and find the new community that everyone is talking about - Serenbe. We found it and it was SO cute! We loved it. We got out and let the kiddos play on the tree house before heading home for a much, much, much needed rest by all of us big kids and little kids.
