Fort Worth Stock Show

My Mother-in-law really wanted to take Hannah to the stock show. Since I'm not from around here I really didn't know anything about it, but figured that since she was so excited about it we'd give it a try. Plus it got us out of the house- always a plus. It was really fun. We got to see lots of different animals, but mostly cows. The cows were being groomed that day. That was pretty entertaining. We walked down rows and rows of cows being combed, clipped, washed, and blow dried. Seriously. Their owners were standing there with blow driers and brushes. It was like a big bovine salon. Weird. We got to see some horses, but only because we went back into the holding pens. I guess they weren't doing much of anything with the horses that day. They were doing a show in the big arena, but it was really boring and the horses were too far away for Hannah to even realize they were there. At least it gave us a few minutes of rest. Hannah loved seeing the animals, well, until they either got too close or started making noise. Then she turned into a big scaredy cat.
Seeing the bunnies for the first time





DUCKLINGS!

Not so sure about the cows..

 The pictures really don't do justice to how seriously massive these cows are, especially the tan one.


The cow shower

This cow was really pretty. It walked right by us and then Mooed really loud and freaked Hannah out. But at least it got her to stop Neighing and say Moo!


My little cowgirl





Hahahahahaha. I love Cheri's face in this picture. And Hannah's. I'm pretty sure the horse had just made a sudden move or made a noise, or maybe not. Maybe it just looked at her funny. Who knows?
