21st Century Americans are Wimps

Our children love animals. Adam loves history. So, we took a family field trip to a local working farm that began in the 1700s. You can take a self-guided tour around the farm, kept as it would have appeared in the 18th century. Throughout the farm, there were people acting the part so that you could get a feel for what life was like during that time. We have nothing to complain about!



Emily was a little apprehensive at the beginning...




Going into the garden with Pap-Pap




Elizabeth's favorite







Look at the size of this ox!! Did you know that an ox is a castrated bull??






Thanksgiving dinner




A mama turkey with her five baby turkies...a hit with all the kids





The cat that scratched Elizabeth and Caleb. Through tears,

Elizabeth told one of the actors that was the reason why we have decided to get a dog!





All tuckered out!
