Today we had a fun field trip to a farm out in Shipshewana. The sweetest amish family shared their chores with us and showed us a little of what they do everyday.



We were able to watch the cows being milked

Chopped them up

Layer on the press

Press the juice out

Watched apples be pressed to make apple cider. They had a homemade press that they invented that was 4 layers thick. Brilliant!

That looks like it was a lot of fun! We were planning on going, and Jeff was going to take 1/2 day off so he could go too, but Evie ended up getting the stomach flu at 1:00 in the morning :(. She was really sad that she missed going to the farm. You had a beautiful day for going!
Wow girl! I want to live there. :)
