Fort Worth Stock Show

Yesterday we went to the Ft. Worth Stock Show and Rodeo. We had a blast and the girls got to pet and learn about lots of animals.This goat hollered out when he was being tagged and it sounded just like a child screaming.
Sweet Hannah watching the goats.
Ouch is all I have to say about the picture below! But the piglets were so cute!
Haircut time?
Elsie the Borden Cow
Shelby was totally in Heaven all day!
John Deere boy
This lady was so great! Her horse was back in a stall for show horses and she took all the kids back there and let them pet, sit on, and learn all about "Johnny"





The look of pure joy!
3 day old goat
We talked to a lot of the animal owners about how they show their animals. They were all very friendly and helpful.
This baby calf had just gotten a hair cut.
Milking time- seriously this is the biggest cow I have ever seen!
You don't even want to know all the stuff we use that is made out of some part of the pig!
Learning about cotton.

The HUGEST rabbit!
