This is my third field trip to the Diary farm, and by far the coldest. However, the frigid weather was really a blessing in disguise. Usually we are knocked over by the smells and this time it wasn't bad at all. Sydney is excited for any field trip, but she's especially excited when we get to ride a big yellow bus just like her big sisters.
The baby calves were so cute, and ready to lick anything in front of them.
Sydney really has an aversion to looking at the camera in a group shot.
Every now and again I can catch her attention for a good single shot...
...and she will hold still long enough for me to photograph our matching boots!
The owners are so nice! They work incredibly hard. Because someone always has to be working the farm, they've never had a family vacation. I asked if they ever feed their cows Skittles because I'd read this article. Short answer is they don't, but it was an interesting discussion about the diet of a dairy cow versus a beef cow!
Sydney was pretty proud of the sticker she earned.
The kids also got milk moustache stickers. Between regular, chocolate and strawberry, Sydney chose a strawberry moustache.
Which is pretty darn sweet!
