The Cow says Moo!

We went to visit the revamped Rockwall ISD Agricultural Complex on Saturday. Harrison had so much fun seeing the farm animals in real life. I've never been so close to those animals either, so it was pretty neat. They were also having a livestock auction (something else that I have never witnessed). It was all very interesting. All of the animals were very vocal, so it kind of scared Harrison at first.
Here's Harrison being a little timid next to the mooing cow. This cow won 1st place for something...not sure what, but he was pretty looking.The cow's handler(?) came by and asked us if we wanted to go into the cow's pen(?) and pet him. I asked if cows bite...they don't, but they do kick, so we tried to be careful.
Here you can see Harrison had warmed up to the cow. Don't mind the hair, it was really windy.Here is one of the many pigs we saw
Goats
A favorite of the day: the tractor.

Fun! There's a country song called "Big Green Tractor" that Dylan loves. He started singing it as soon as he saw the picture. Looks like Harrison was having a great time!
