Dairy Month

June was dairy month in our area. We had a blast checking out two different farms and going to Cows on the Concourse. We took a field trip to a local farm to learn about agriculture. Well, mom learned a lot, and the kids enjoyed the animals. :-) We also went to a local farm to enjoy "Breakfast on the Farm." We had a great meal, enjoyed the company (thanks Spredemann's), and danced to some fun music. Mike and the kids enjoyed the Cows on the Concourse (aka The Square). Hannah was not sure of all the mooing. She said it was a bit loud for her. Ben loved all the animals and called them all "dog.".

play group enjoying little chicks.

Hannah is not too sure about the big tractors.

We got to milk a cow.
A new experience for all.

Let us in, goats!!

goats so next time he will be ready to feed them.

Hannah's favorite part, feeding the goats.
