Saturday morning we headed down to the Mississippi Fairgrounds to take a look around at the Dixie National Rodeo. Much to our surprise, we got out of the car just in time to see a parade of horses and wagons riding right by our path, and were even able to touch a horse upclose. Real upclose, if you know what I mean. The children loved seeing the parade and we had a great time. What a great way to start off our morning!
Mollie was tickled at the baby calf behind her, especially when she realized the baby calf drinks her milk from the baby bottles hanging from her mommy's tummy!
And below, she wasn't sure this pig was still alive at first, but she was real tickled when she found out he lies down to sleep, just like she and her brother Tripp!
So, which is better? The sleeping pig or this pig that is awake and grunting loudly at you? Notice that little Mollie is smiling for the camera as she neeevvveeerr takes her eye off this pink pig! She wanted to make sure he didn't come one. step. closer! And Tripp was not sure what to think about all this animal business. He just wanted to make the animal sounds from off at a distance. :)
Just another fun adventure for this little bunch of buchanans!
