Today I took the kids on an adventure. These first pictures are from Appleberry Farm in Cross Plains, WI. Despite it being very windy, we picked apples (Connell Red and Ida Red), played on the tire swings, bought apple cider and caramel apples and enjoyed eating fresh apple dough nuts before heading home.
Earlier in the day, I took the kids to Hinchley Dairy Farms in Cambridge, WI for a dairy tour. This was FANTASTIC! The kids had a blast! It is a working dairy farm so we were able to get up close and personal with the cows. We were taught a lot about the farm and cows during our tour but I think the kids just liked being around the animals. The only thing that Elizabeth wanted to see was a cow going poop and pee. She was so excited when she finally saw it! We were able to milk the cows and pet them. We even were allowed to pet the baby calves and see one that was only a couple of hours old. Beside the cows, the kids had fun feeding the goats, chickens and sheep with corn that they took off the cob and they also had fun taking a tractor hayride to pick out some pumpkins. It was a great day and I can't wait to take the kids back in the spring to see the baby animals.
