...to go to a working dairy farm

...and watch it snow a bit!

The children had the day off of school today and I have been wanting to check this farm out since we have moved here.  Our timing was perfect!  We pretty much had the place to ourselves since it was a) so cold, b) the school groups were done with their field trips for the day, and c) our children were the only kids in the area with the day off.

But Brrr!  It was pretty chilly at The Old MacDonald Farm in Sacket's Harbor, NY today!


However...it was sunny and we were dressed for the cold.   We had a GREAT time enjoying the visit with our friends.


There were many things to enjoy...

We fed the goats,

pigs,

and the cows,




And we enjoyed petting and seeing so many different animals, including: Donkeys, Horses, Bunnies, Ducks, Chickens, Goats, and even Alpacas, Reindeer, and Emus!


There was even a bounce house,


and a corn maze...



...that finished with finding Oz!  


Does anyone else find it ironic that #4 wouldn't join the group for the photo opportunity, yet instead positioned her pouting-self under the witch sign?

Sigh.

No matter.  She loved this place.  And so did the rest of us.

It was a lovely, brisk, and enjoyable, fun-fall-day!
