Well actually it was TWO maids and TWO farm 'dudes'....
[What is the male version of "maid"?]
Here they are...
[dh didn't make it into the pic.]
[He needs to send me the pics off his phone too... ;o)]
So I'll just post a pic of the kiddos AFTER they went to the farm at 5:30AM to milk cows!!!
YES THEY DID!
Here's where they went...
You are welcome to go at 5:30 AM or PM.
You'll recall we visited Little Qualicum Cheeseworks Farm in June...
While there we learned that they were open for any & all help during their cow milking times...
We suggested to the kiddos that 5:30AM would be a great time to go as there would be a better chance of nobody else being there...
They decided they would do just that!
So today off they went!
They had an absolute BLAST!!!
They milked the WHOLE herd!
68 cows!
They spent 3 hours helping Dave.
He's in charge of the dairy part of the farm.
He was really impressed with their efforts and even gave them some FREE cheese!
You can't get a much better experience than that!
They would LOVE to do it again!
They cleaned teats, hooked up milking machines and iodined the teats when they were finished.
They did it all!
They learned a lot too!
I am so proud of all of them for getting up at 5AM and making the 20 minute drive to be there and ready for the 5:30AM cow call!
Way to go my little hayseeds!
