The Fort Worth Stock Show 2011

Today we headed to Fort Worth to the annual stock show. None of us have ever been, so we were excited to get to go! Thanks to our friends' Aimee and Chad we were able to go for free! The weather was absolutely gorgeous. When it's mid-70s and sunny in late January, I'm super thankful!


Heading to the cattle barns


Ellie and I were watching the Angus cattle do their thing.



I've never seen cows that were so well groomed!

Ellie found this piece of hay on the ground, and she told me that bread comes from this! Smart girlie!

They loved getting inside the horse trailers that had the mini living quarters in them!

Their favorite part of the whole stock show was getting to "ride" on the farm equipment. Here is Miss Ella Cate on a bright blue piece of machinery.




Their favorite ones to ride were the ones that they could close the doors on!

When Sam was taking this pic of Carson and I, Ellie wondered a few feet away...she was missing for all of a minute, and a kind lady brought her to us....still...that is the scariest feeling for her and us. She was extra careful the rest of the day in the MASSIVE crowds!

Hot tub display...ha!

Enjoying some yummy chocolate and strawberry milk! Fun times at the Stock Show!!
