I never thought I'd become a "pig" person, but the pride and joy the kids take in owning their pigs is contagious! Plus, there is not much cuter than kids and pigs!
In the weeks leading up to the fair, we spent more time with the pigs outside of their barn and pen.
Scott is the wrangler when the pigs start to stray where they shouldn't go...Not much different than parenting 😉
Jake and his purebred Duroc breeding gilt, Chip
We have some close friends who wanted to meet our piggies, so we invited the Wolles to come with us on our visit to the farm.
Wanda was quite taken with Matt and wanted to become his friend!
Wanda was being particularly playful with everyone that evening, so we fed her some mini marshmallows as a reward for good behavior.
Wanda was being SO gentle even Betsy and Henry were able to feed her a treat!
Wanda LOVES her belly rubs!
Just a girl and her pig! 💜
Buddies for life - Henry, Kate, Betsy, Keeley, & Jake (aka Cubby)!
After we put the pigs back in the pen we explored the rest of Farmer Kurt's farm.
We found some cows! These are beef cows as opposed to dairy cows.
Relaxing and watching the cows. Friends and farms - is there anything better?!?
Jake hopped right into chores and grabbed a bucket to feed the cows.
No need for "technology" when you've got cows to watch!
Wanna bet Jake is telling Scott all the reasons we need to move to a farm? 😉💙
