Fair Oaks Farms

The kids had 2 days off school this week so the teachers could go to a convention.  We had a fun overnight trip with Casey's family to Fair Oaks Farms in northern Indiana.  Casey's parents treated us to the farm and a stay in a hotel.  We had a great time with them, Nick, and Jeff, Renee, Tyler and Cassie! 

We enjoyed the pig farm tour, the dairy farm tour, exploring the museum building, watching a calf being born, and doing a couple outside activities for the kids.  We also had a delicious lunch and homemade ice cream.  When we were finished at the farm, we went to our hotel and checked in.  After dinner at IHOP, the kids swam in the hotel pool.  In the morning we had breakfast at the hotel and then headed home.

We're glad we could have this fun trip with Casey's family, and it was a nice way to celebrate the school break.

We liked this sign on the back of the bus!
