Tis the season for field trips. Little Princess's preschool class got to go to the dairy in Nephi. Her teacher's really good about letting siblings go too. Since Little Man goes to afternoon Kindergarten he was excited to go. I'd never been to a dairy before and found it fascinating (minus the smell of course). The cows walk onto this carousel themselves, get hooked up to get milked, and then back out on their own when they're done.
Little Princess was having a great time with her friends the whole time. I had to go find her to take her picture. It was fun to see her having a great time with her friends.
They keep the baby cows in a separate area until they are 3 months old. All my kids loved this area checking on each calf.
Little Man took good care of The Mover at the dairy. He was really cute with her. This picture cracked me up (and you can't see it very well) but every cow in this area was right up against the fence watching the kids.
Also this week was Big Man's animal fair. I didn't realize the picture was kind of fuzzy until I put it on here :( The second graders at his school have worked really hard at their animal reports for a couple of months now. They made a book with 4 or 5 chapters on different facts about their chosen animal. They then made a poster board with pictures and the rest of the school and parents got to come and see it. We have a friend who had a badger skin that we borrowed for the fair. Big Man did a great job. It was fun for him (and me) to see all his hard work come together.
