Another Reason I Love Homeschooling

A day spent at the local dairy, learning about cows and the logistics of running a small farm.  Crocodile Hunter wants to pursue agriculture as a career, so we are planning to do a lot more visiting of local farms over the next few years.

Field trips that involve ages 14 to 1 month

And a picnic lunch at the vineyard after!

I am excited for the spring so that we can do things like this. This pregnancy has been difficult, so we haven't been able to do any field trips yet. :)

We went to a nearby dairy last week to buy milk. It was neat. Your pictures are great...wish we new each other in real life.

Amanda - love having a local dairy!

Michelle - this was our first field trip in a while, couldn't do any lengthy walking the last 2 months of pregnancy, and am just beginning to venture out with our newest little one. Good luck!

We did this a few weeks ago, too. My boys have decided they prefer milking goats to milking cows though. Not sure why. And I LOVE seeing the two bookend boys together in that last photo!

Oops. Second to last photo. :)
