The toy shop was amazing! Kaylee has fun playing with the kitchens, cribs, high chairs, feeding the dolls, etc. We got her a school desk since she already had the other things! She wanted the wooden food but they didn’t sell it as it was made in China and they only like to sell American made things. Bodie loved seeing the marble mazes. He just jumped up and down as he excitedly watched the marbles race. Riley loved the horse stables so we got her one to play with her horses. It was amazing how detailed it was! She had been using a moving box that Daddy D drew on to look like a stable.
Then we drove on to Plain and Fancy Farms. We bought buggy ride tickets and while we waited, did a tour of a one room school and Amish home. The Amish believe that it is sacrilegious to have their pictures taken so that was not allowed.

| propane powered washing machine |

| The farmhouse |
 |
| The bathroom - they had gravity powered running water so can flush toliets and take showers |
 |
| They have 1 kerosene lamp that is on wheels that they move from the family room to kitchen. Their entire premise is that the family should remain together. They have a lot right, I think! |
