Family Day at the Farm

On Saturday, we went to Family Day at the Farm. It was supposed to introduce farming and agriculture to kids and the community! There were a bunch of booths and demonstrations...we made butter, milked a 'cow', made plant people, saw real cane syrup, petted a few animals, saw how to make homemade soap, and a ton of other really cool agricultural type things! It was a beautiful day to enjoy a fun {and free} outing with the boys!
Cute balloon corn stalks!
Henry milking the 'cow'! Henry pointed out that it wasn't really milk...it was just water!
Grant took a turn milking the 'cow' too!
The boys got to see a SUPER cool spider among a ton of other really disgusting dead insects and bugs!
They got to check out the fire truck...
and try to rope a {fake} bull!
Grant climbing the fence in the horse arena!
Henry with his chicken balloon.
Eating their ice cream that they got {free} for milking the cow!

  8. That does look like fun, and there doesn't seem to be much of a crowd which is even better and unusual for a free activity!
