Payton and I took Lauren to the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo last weekend and had a really fun time! Although I'm not a huge animal person, I put on a brave face for my little girl! Turns out, she's not really a huge animal person either! Nonetheless, we still had fun and maybe we'll take her back in a few years!
She's got her boots on and she's ready for the fair!
Mommy and Lauren ready to go!
Payton standing by an electric Delorian!
Our first stop was the petting zoo...Lauren was not a fan AT ALL!
That goat was cRaZy and took all of my feed!
Her face says it all..."get me out of here!"
Daddy helping Lauren feed the deer while pushing that cRaZy goat away at the same time...
I'm still not sure how a kangaroo fits in with the barnyard animal petting zoo?!
This one was pretty cute...as long as he stayed right there!
This little guy was precious...just sleeping the day away!
Lauren actually liked this one and me too!
And then that pesky kangaroo came and interrupted our fun!
Telling the ducks hi!
She was not a fan of that donkey...
Show us the "tweet"...too cute!
She liked the rabbits!
I actually got her to stop for a brief moment so I could snap a picture!
Daddy, Lauren, and the scary, fake cow!

Going through the "cafeteria line" learning about healthy choices!

Elsie the milk cow! Lauren was not a fan!
Funny sign...

Lauren and her basket...or purse.
Feeding the chickens!
Then she had to put her egg in the basket!
Leaving the hen house!
Took a break to show us her egg!
Lauren planted a tomato seed and got to put a tomato in her basket!
Petting the horse!
Picking a peach off the tree!
Playing in the corn box...she is like her mother and
needed the box to be clean before she could start having fun!
Throwing the corn!
She does not like her hands getting dirty!
Cute little Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo photo-op!
She took her goods to the market to sell!
Lauren gave the money she earned at the Farmer's Market
to the lady and she got a Capri Sun!
Riding the elephant ride at the carnival!
She wasn't so sure about the ride before we started...
But then she LOVED it!
Lauren had such a great time (minus the crazy animals and cow...)
that she fell asleep before we even ate lunch!
