Cute Animals

We went to the fair a long time ago, but I've been bad about blogging lately so I didn't post any of my pictures. My two favorite things about the fair are food and animals, especially petting the animals. Petting the sheep is my favorite. It's like petting dogs but they're much more calm and warm and their woolly heads feel nice, even if they're under a jacket. They like to sniff like dogs too, but so much more air comes out!Mom and Sarah patted the sweetest sheep of all. It stood up on the fence to visit them!This one really liked to pose. Such a sweet face. :)The cows are pretty fun to pat too, but they make me more nervous. This one licked Raf:And then it licked me! My bag was a little dirty after but it was worth it.We got to pat these two too. They were really soft. They were about to go in a competition. I think cows (or oxen, in this case) have beautiful huge eyes. I'm always amazed by how bony they are!These cows (or I guess oxen) had a goat friend. It reminded me of Seabiscuit, except I think his friend was a sheep. Remember how they lived in the same stall? That was so cute. Here is the cutest picture I took at the fair. Cows (I mean oxen) kissing! I couldn't believe it. :)

Ice Cream at the Farm

Rafael and I went to Crane Beach in Ipswich the past two weekends. I'll write more about the beach later. Both times we got ice cream at Russell Orchard on our way home. The orchard is so close to the beach, you can see the marshes from their farm. The ice cream is delicious! We ate chocolate chip:As we were eating we started to notice lots of interesting things around us, like signs to go raspberry and blueberry picking! (These are my kind of directions!)There was also some old red stuff:

Then we noticed the animals! We loved this fatty pig, he (or maybe she) weighs approximately 1000 pounds! His (or her) name is Big Boy! It seemed really relaxed (and not dead, like I was wondering). There were 3 pony's but I only got to take a picture of one at a time because this one was a bully:

I loved the cutie bunnies! This one in the hole was so pretty. They lived in the same house as the chickens, I think. Raf tried to pick up the strawberry rock. If I ever have a yard I want a strawberry rock.In case you didn't know, Raf loves ducks! He really liked these three buddies. They went around everywhere together! So cute. We really had fun at the farm. :) Maybe Rafael will take me back in the fall for some apples and pumpkins.... or maybe he'll take me again this weekend for more ice cream! xoxo

Savannah Animal Paparazzi

There were lots of cuties in Savannah! We got to see lots of them in Forsyth Park (including one Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil moment): The owner of this sweetie said that I was the second person to take their picture that day (haha!):
We saw this lovey (my favorite) on Tybee Island: I love how it's acting so golden retriever-ish (like, "I'm going for a walk! Yes!!!")! Not all of the animals were so active: Pobrecitos! Not all of the animals were cute either:Oooooh blue eyes! I made friends with them anyway (in my wild outfit): Oops I forgot this guy:Bruno's southern cousin!

Traveling Seal

Did you hear about this cutie? She waddled 2 miles (approximately), even across a mini golf course (maybe), to have a trout feast at a fish hatchery in Cape Cod! So sneaky!

How did she know about it??? I love it when animals are funny!

Aquarium

Raf and I went to the aquarium yesterday to check out the cuties. Just look at these jelly fish!We saw lots of cool animals. I felt like fish paparazzi!I thought Sarah would like these lovey penguins:We got to hold starfish in the tide pool section. The water was really cold!Mom loves this eel. We saw 3 of them!This picture was inspired by Susie, only she got to hold the real octopus!Raf was cute with the penguins.He really liked the sharks!
