Here they are! Let me introduce you to our home school group! I think we were only missing two families on this adventure.
We drove over 2 hours up to Mississippi State to their Vet School Open House.
We got a tour of the school, saw the classrooms and the labs, met real students and had a wonderful morning.
Tiff was fascinated with the horse skeleton....
While Kaebrie liked the dolphin.
Christopher liked those baby pigs!
Kaebrie was full of questions, as usual. :)
She said this was the biggest cow she had ever seen.
Those tiny baby chicks were adorable as well.
This was not adorable. An opinions are varied on how cool this was. Yes, that is a real hole into one of the stomachs of the cow. This student reached in and pulled out some of the hay it had eaten for breakfast. I thought it was really neat, and so did Kaitlynn. She asked if she could put on the glove and do it. Collin, on the other hand, immediately left the room.
You could see the stomach muscles moving the hay around.
Ever wondered how much the average home school group weighs?
Now you know.......1,893 pounds!
Kaitlynn is sold. She is ready to sign on the dotted line and be a State student in the Vet department.
Collin insisted on wearing his Auburn jacket, though I warned him that might not be a good idea. Nobody smeared cow manure in his hair, and he did get 4 War Eagles, which he liked.
Afterwards, we went to Louisville to visit friends and we stopped by our old house. The new pastor has since added a second story to the tree house Sam built when Collin was 5. All the kids enjoyed going all the way up!
We left the house at 6:40 am and returned home at 9:30 pm, a long, but fun day willed with learning, friends and time together.
