Hansen's Farm Fresh Dairy

Tonight's prayer by Eli:

Heavenly Father, thank you for the day, thank you for the cows, I mean the kangaroos, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

(Apparently Eli either thinks he can only say thank you for one thing, or he really didn't care for the cows we saw at the dairy farm.)

Today we were invited to go to a dairy near Waterloo. The tour started off by seeing the Wallaby's and then we were led through different parts of the dairy. Warning** This may be a picture overload.

Eli got to pet a calf. He thought it was pretty cool.


Check out that long tongue licking Eli.

Eli thought this part was pretty cool.
And the best part...ICE CREAM!
Eli picked snickers and after he had eaten a good bit
of that he decided that he should "share" my strawberry
with me and proceeded to eat that instead!
