A Day for Goats

Our Girl Scout Troop took a field trip to a local Goat Farm today. Wesmar Farms is located in Moreauville, LA and is a great place to get soap, cheese and more all made from goats milk. The girls had lots of fun playing with the baby goats, and even learned some great info about how the goats are raised and the process behind the products being sold. They were able to taste the milk, different flavors of cheese, and ice cream. A very fun day indeed!

Girls Night

The boys left for a weekend of camping with the Boy Scouts. So, what are the girls to do? Well, we got a free rental from Redbox and spent the evening watching a movie and eating popcorn. We rented "Julie & Julia". Cute movie and very much a chick flick but fun to watch.
