Fair Time

The end of summer means fair time. We first went to the Malheur Co. Fair in Ontario in Aug. Gretchen loves most animals so we made the rounds to see them all.

Yay! A goat to pet!

Look at this bunny!

And this one!

Poppy, this is called a bunny.

Pigs are prickly.

In Sept we went to the Western Idaho Fair.
This is different - a baby kangaroo!

Ahhh! The goats are her favorite!

She says, "C'm 'ere goa-ee" (translation: "Come here goaty")

In the video she squeals when the goat licks her hand. Julia's nephew is off-screen and when his mom moves him closer to see the goat, he is not happy about it.

She tried feeding the sheep.

In this video Gretchen lets the sheep eat out of her hand. Then she decides he needs more.

She wasn't too sure about getting close to the longhorn.

She kept her eye on the horse.....

...finally deciding it was fine to pet him.

Guess she wanted to see what the horse's hooves looked like.

Strangely enough she didn't want to touch the guiena pig.

However she really enjoyed watching the baby quail.
