    1. the farm is a 45 minute drive away, so i'm guessing they know that there will be some fidgety children visiting...

  6. We bought a pig from a co-workers daughter (it was her 4H project) a year or so ago. We divided it between my parents, the in laws and ourselves. Except for the bacon. We kept all the bacon!
