Butterflies and cows

In the end of August (yes I am still trying to catch up on my blogging), a butterfly exhibit came to our local conservatory and petting farm!

It was a ridiculously hot day but we sweated through it so that Amerah could enjoy the butterflies...
 
 
 
She enjoyed it so much, it was well worth the sweat!
After the butterflies, we hopped next door to say hi to the animals at the petting farm...
 
 
 
 
 
 
 My favorite by far was this cow... who LOVED us!  She kept trying to grab my camera!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
A staff member tells me that they have to be careful because this cow was raised on the farm.. Apparently, when she was a calf, the staff would play with her... now that she's so much bigger, she is still very playful and will charge them when they're in her pen!  We were told that just that day a new staffer barely made it over the fence as the cow came running at her!

We love animals!  Amerah still wants to be a vet when she grows up!
