Tiffenfest Petting Zoo

I'm a little behind on my blogging, we had a trip to Michigan last weekend and I have lots of pictures from that to post. For now, I had wanted to post about the petting zoo we took Isabella to a few weekends ago. It was at Tiffenfest, which there isn't really much going on with that, but they did have a kid's carnival which Isabella was too young for. In the next few years it will be perfect for her. We did let her go into the petting zoo, and she had a pretty good time. I thought she'd be pretty scared of all the animals, but she actually went after them to pet them.



I was taking pictures of Isabella and this cow not realizing she totally had her hand on its butt. (You don't want to know exactly where her other hand is in the picture). Maybe she'll want to be a vet when she grows up?....


On a side note, I felt sorry for this cow, I don't think it was feeling so well. I hope all these animals don't mind the constant harassment by children.

A couple of videos to note, the first one was right at the beginning when we went in. I didn't really realize how "friendly" the animals were or even how many there were or how big some of them were. Animals were basically constantly running into me and touching me while I was trying to video, but you can't really tell from the video. It is why I'm laughing so much and it was also being witnessed by another lady who was talking to me while I was videoing as well. I like the way the animals keep sneaking up on Isabella and there is a goat at the beginning with a strange cough.




Thought it was cute how much Isabella wanted to use the hand sanitizer. She usually only uses her "more" sign for food, so I think it is cute when she uses it for other things. This was after we'd already given her sanitizer once or twice.

Gus loves hand sanitizer. They have some by the employee time clock at our grocery store and he has to use it every time -- several times. It's not for shoppers, it's for staff!

At least she likes the animals. Gus is scared of them and last summer, he punched a shetland pony in the face when it got too close to him at a petting zoo. The worker said it was OK and that horse gets punched in the face all the time. Poor horse!
