Once we arrived at the farm, we met our leaders. They had so many wonderful things planned for all of us.

We had a lovely wagon ride.
The most exciting part of our morning was watching a farmer shear a sheep! The sheep was so calm.
Guess who's getting a haircut? |

At the end of the morning we spent time in the hayloft. Our shoes and clothes got full of hay but it was so fun!

Thank you to all the parents and grandparents who joined us on our trip to the farm. It was nice to have so many dads join us. It was a perfect day.
