Grandma's Day Camp



Mike's Mom and her sister have started something in the past...2years?...I think, called Grandma's Day Camp. Since all their grandbabies, minus us, live close they have a camp for about a week I believe. Well, this year they timed it while we were there-YAY! They take the kids-10 of them- and do stuff each day...and the parents get the day off. We got to be there for 2 days and it was a lot of fun. They sang songs, my children's favorite being the MILK song-hilarious, made t-shirts, made license plates and flags for their bicycle parade, made notebooks to color in and record their fun and had a farm day-which Mike and I tagged along for. They went to 3 farms and saw, llamas, chickens-held little chicks, miniature horses which I kept calling ponies (I really didn't know there was a difference...there is and I got laughed at), and we went to the Shatto Dairy Farm and got to milk a cow, learn all about cows and got to tast different milks and cheeses that they produce in MO. I need to add that the milk, and I don't like milk, was DEE-LI-CIOUS!

LOTS OF PICS!


One of my favoritw pics of the trip...too cute. Brody and Kallie were Patrick's best buddies.




She can touch a snake, hold a chick and all sorts of things but milking a cow wasn't her thing.
Yep, that's ME and Patcrick milking a cow...I swore I would never nurse again...we'll see if it holds up. ;)

So tuckered out
