I knew how lucky I was to have a pony.<br /><br />During the month of August, we will be heading up to the "Family Farm Compound" (North of Toronto) like we do every summer. Over 450 acres for The entire Zoo to roam. I am so happy that my kids get to experience that. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing.<br /><br />Besos, Sarah<br />Zookeeper at Journeys of The ZooJourneys of The Zoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06983303004148331623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-25277631133204431552012-07-25T21:53:06.016-04:002012-07-25T21:53:06.016-04:00FabFrugalMama:
