Train, Pony and the Fair

Friday night we were invited to a neighborhood dinner. The party was at a very neat place, the Mott's. They have spent years building a train track around their house and land. They even have a tunnel for the train to go under, a bridge it goes over and a small petting zoo it goes by. If that wasn't enough they got out a Shetland pony for the kids to ride. Jaxson just loved it. He started calling the pony "mine".

Saturday we took Jaxson to the fair. I had signed him up for the baby contest. He did so well. It was very noisy and a lot going on where they had the contest but Brett and I were impressed with the "tricks" he was willing to do. He won Best Style and I think our Jaxson does have style. After the contest we walked around the fair. We had so much fun with Jaxson in the Little Red Barn. It was a fun place for kids to do hand-on farm things.

Jaxson loved the animals and hay that were around the barn.

One of the helpers in the barn was a teacher I had taught with at Naples so she spoiled us and had her husband get out on of the baby pigs for Jaxson to pet.
