Last week I had the pleasure of going with the first graders to the Milk Maker’s Fest over at the Fairgrounds. The county dairy farmers sponsor the event and first graders from all over the county and the neighboring county come to participate! I went when Bethany was in first grade also, and while it wasn’t a nice day, it didn’t snow that time.
The morning of this year’s Milk Maker’s? Snowing. Hailing. Blowing. While we were at the bus stop. Fortunately that stopped by the time the field trip actually started at 9:45, but it was bitter CoLd. I should have worn my long john’s. Farmers don’t heat their barns, apparently.
Becca and two of her buddies in the hay maze. They were warm at this point – lots of excitement and running around.
Look at that! He smiled for my picture! I can put this one in the slideshow at the reception when he & Becca get married!
Becca was pretty serious about this cow-milking stuff. She’s a good worker when she wants to be.
Becca and a couple buddies on the wagon ride…by this time, they had sat around, listening to various talks and drinking chocolate milk. They were getting cold.
But the chocolate milk was still tasty!
She was cold. My nose was frozen. But we had fun together, anyway.
