A Corny First

Oliver finally got a chance to ride in the tractor. He is officially a working boy! We pulled a grain cart while Grandpa Walton combined corn.
Our sweet little family all on the tractor!

 Mom and Oliver

 One day he'll beg to go ride the tractor with his dad, but for now, he just wants that pacifier!

The FAIRest of Them All

Well, this is only a few months late, but back in August we were able to make it over to the Western Idaho Fair, and what fun we had! Terry's parents were recognized as farmers in Idaho, that's the only reason we went, they had FREE tickets! We really enjoyed walking through the "petting zoo." However, some of these animals didn't seem like they should have been touched.

Yak
Miniature Cow. It was full grown!

Scottish Highlander
Zebu - African "cow." He was HUGE. I'm sure no cage could really contain him.



This was Terry's FAVORITE! We would call it a Water Buffalo, however Terrys tell me this is incorrect. It's real name is "Karibao."  Since Terry went on his mission to the Philippines, he has convinced himself he is a true Filippino (if you couldn't tell by his red hair!) He said this one is much much smaller than the ones in the Philippines though.

  I would also like to point out that on this sign they spelled Philippines wrong. 

 Here we have a shark, well, a few of them. I'm still trying to see where sharks fit in at a fair but, hey! It was entertaining!

 Of course I had to add a picture of this guy! He was such a good boy and loves anything outside, so the fair was just perfect for him!
