During our trip to Nampa we went to Mike Bueses(spelling????) dairy farm to take the kids out to see cows. He told us he has 25000 baby cows on the farm. All Jer could say was Holy Cow. There were a lot of the younger babies in their own pens and Mylie loved walking along the row of 50 pens and letting eat of the cows lick her hand. She thought it was the best thing ever. Noah let some of them suck on his fingers. Harley was a little scared of the cows. She wouldn't let any of them touch her. She did finally at the end of the day milk a cow. That was a big deal for her. We walked around the farm and learned how they feed that many babies all at the same time. We learned about the ear tags, and then how they milk the cows. It was fun. We spent about 3 hours out at the farm and the kids loved it. I think NOah and Harleys favorite part was riding on the 4 wheeler and in the front loader. The only bad part was staying to watch a baby being born and it was born dead. Harley and Noah were a little tramatized by that. They didn't understand why the baby died.
