The kids and I had a unique opportunity this morning to feed some orphaned baby piglets. The Momma Pig died at childbirth and the farmers were looking for extra hands to give bottles to the piglets. I literally leaped at the opportunity. And I am so glad that I did! What a delightful way to spend our morning!
Even my youngest had fun with the piglets…
We drove a little over an hour to get there and the feeding didn’t last long, so we extended our stay a bit by sampling some of the creamery’s delicious ice cream. The family was super kind to allow us to purchase ice cream before they were opened. Ice Cream at 10am?! Sure thing!
Will they grow up to be food?

ReplyDeleteVery cute pictures! We love feeding my dad's baby calves and pigs. And they do end up as "dinner." Such is the reality of life on the farm....
