I was pretty bummed when Chad was scheduled to be on call the day of the annual Young's Dairy trip. Luckily, we had asked the lady in Charge if Mike and Saundra's family could come, since Chad couldn't, and we were given permission. On the day of the picnic it was freezing! The temperatures were on the low size, but even worse was the biting wind. We tried to bundle up and make the best of it. I think there were enough families that decided to leave early due to the weather that we were given permission to take our wrist bands home and use them another day!
We enjoyed the free picnic and the parts of the dairy that didn't need a wrist band, like the animals and photo spots.
With a stack of free wrist bands and the chance to plan our visit at our leisure, we came up with a super plan of how to make the most of our second trip to Young's Dairy. We planned to go on a Friday afternoon when Steve and Emily's family would be up for a visit from Alabama ( and when Chad wouldn't be on call)!
It was a perfect day! The weather was beautiful, we brought our own picnic lunch, and we loved every second of it! Mini golf was one of the favorite activities. We let the kids go crazy counting as many as 38 a hole each, and the adults had fun being a little competitive, especially since our family golf pros weren't at too much of an advantage on a mini course.
The kids had a great time in the Kid Corral, while the adults took turns enjoying some of the other venues.
Super slide races, bating cages, driving ranges and more! It was awesome! We even ended the night (since we stayed until it was starting to get dark) with giant waffle cones from the dairy! I can't imagine we will be able to top that trip to dairy, unless we can talk everyone into coming back another year for it!
