an animal petting party

CHILDHOOD, FAMILY

As aforementioned, we went to Austin last weekend to celebrate our niece/cousin Ella’s third birthday (early — since they’re moving). By no understatement, the party was crazy. The kids loved it (aside from the little girl who had her finger bitten by one of the pigs). Where else can you get away with holding, feeding, even throwing little animals? I wish I had video. Scott actually has video of Ella slinging bunnies. Afterward, we stayed and played at the pool along with the Carruths. Anyway, here are some pictures.

  1. TT: the petting zoo is pure genius: the kids love it and parents are saved from buying a farm.

    Patti: This picture captures Burke’s disposition perfectly. When he’s done, he’s done, and there’s no way to convince him otherwise. Thanks for the reassurance.

  2. Sweet Burke. Having a little rest. It is tiring to have so much fun. I don’t blame you for crying at their departure. It isn’t just pregnancy. We just weren’t made for separation. But the reunions are sure to be joyful.
