I think I told you this once before, but I'll tell you again... I LoVe CoNnEr PrAiRiE! It is so fabulous! We went there today with some of our very good friends and had a great time! We even got to see the balloon up close and it is even more humongous than I thought! So cool! We went today to see the sheep get their haircuts. And boy, they sure needed them! They were all poofy and after they got a good haircut, they were so soft!! You know what else was there? BABIES! Not just Evelyn and Kyle - animal babies! Lambs, baby goats (they're called kids) and baby chicks. I got to pet all of them, except for the lamb who was just born on Tuesday (she was super duper cute, too!) and the baby chicks. I heard Mom say that chickens have a lot of germs and she didn't want it to poo on my hand - and I thought that was pretty good advice, so I didn't even ask to hold them. Then we got to see the loom house (where they make blankets out of the sheep wool) and the Indian wigwams. Then, I went into an old pilrgrim kind of house and a guys was in there talking about skin - animal skin! It was SO interesting! We did get to go inside and play for a little while with the pretend fruits and veggies, but then we had to go home. I was good and didn't cry or anything! I must be doing a good of obeying - maybe I'll get a treat for being so good? Here are some pictures from our super fun morning! Love to all! ((hugs)) E1
