What Does a Cow Say?

This weekend we headed out to check out a few of the animal attractions here in Utah county. Ainslie's getting pretty good at her animal sounds these days, but she's been working mostly with the magnet farm on the fridge. We thought it might be fun to check out some real farm animals. Sippy cup? Check. Pig tails? Check. Here we go . . . We know that fish don't really make a sound, but ever since she saw the fish in Uncle Steve's office, Ainslie loves fish. Cabela's has a great aquarium with trout and other fun fish. Ainslie was really excited when she realized that we were surrounded by fish. Big fish. Swimming fish. It was awesome. After that we headed over to Thanksgiving Point to see the farm animals. Ainslie had fun with the animals, but we found out that Janae has Dr. Doolittle-like abilities to get the animals to come say "hi."

Goats, sheep, cows, everybody was drawn to Janae. The turkeys freaked her out, just a little, but Ainslie thought the they were pretty funny.

These chickens were a little less threatening. Even Ainslie could tell that they were just babies.

Why do these pigs look so content?They apparently just had their fill of bagels. Our favorite friend was probably this little calf.

These guys added a certain degree of personality to the farm. The donkey was really ornery, but his alpaca pal was totally chill.
But, our favorite character was this guy. With a face like that, how could you not put a picture of this guy on your blog?Lots of friends, lots of fun.
