2011 PA Farm Show

On Wednesday, as part of our annual tradition, my dad and I took Ella to the PA Farm Show in Harrisburg. This year she was very excited to go and remembered some of the animals that she saw last year. She was not fearful of anything and enjoyed petting and meeting the animals. Her two favorite things were milking a pretend cow (she did this about 5 times) and seeing the chicks hatching and watching the ducklings on the sliding board.


We bumped into Curious George on the escalator!

Ella loved the baby chicks!

Ella also loved the bunnies and how soft they were. She was worried that they were going to hop off of the table.


"Awww!"

  1. Love these pictures at the Farm Show. You can see Ella really enjoyed herself with the picture of Mommy and Ella. Of course, the one with Ella and Pappy you can really see they are best buddies.
