I finally got some time to sit down and post some pictures. The preschool tour threw off our schedule at the farm just a little, and now we are working on planning the tour for the High School Ag class coming next Wednesday. I love pictures of kids seeing a dairy farm for the first time...and a picture is worth a million words. Also a HUGE thanks to the Dairy Princesses that came out to spend time with the kids on Monday! I know they had a blast seeing a real life princess in person!
Explaining to the kids that in the summer heat we run sprinklers, which are ALOT like water parks....so fun for cows too!
Kids enjoying snack time, cheese and crackers.
Dairy Princess Angie handing out stickers to the preschoolers-which say "I met a dairy farmer".-Those were awesome stickers!!!
Meeting Baby Joey. Those kids wanted to hug Joey so badly!
Talking about what we feed the cows to the little boys, so curious about the smells that they smelled.
Petting a cow for the first time. They weren't scared at all!
Snack time with cheese and crackers, and their new stickers.
Mmmmm...juice boxes :)
The best group picture we got at the farm!
Mainly, as you can see, 21 preschoolers and a baby calf are all hard to manage and get to stand still, oh well.
Bottle feeding calves with Dairy Princess Val. Kids LOVED this activity!
Bottle feeding with Dairy Princess Angie. Odessa enjoyed all of the extra attention.
HAY RIDE! The boys were huge fans of the hay ride, but we learned that only boys should drive not girls, like me ;)
Loading the hay ride to the calf barn.

I write this blog to share my passion for my cows and farming, please be respectful of that. I reserve the right to delete those comments which portray hate, call names, and are out right disrespectful. If you have an honest question, I will respond, to explain what we do on our farm, why we do it and how we do it. Please read with an open mind. My time to blog is short, as most of our days are spent caring for our beloved cows. Thank you!
