Happy Birthday, Harrison!

Friday afternoon we headed to Paris for a weekend of birthday fun.  Sweet Harrison, who lives behind my parents turned 2 and for his party had a petting zoo in the back yard.  The boys anxiously awaited the arrival of the animals and when Jack saw them unload the pot bellied pigs he said "Look, Daddy!  It's baby hippos!"  There was a llama, a calf, goats, chickens, a tortoise, the pigs, a rabbit and two ponies.  The kids had a blast!

Big Big got more than he bargained for.  He was so out of breath from chasing Marshall on that pony, he could hardly talk, which says a lot for my dad!

For the first time ever, Jack wasn't even reluctant to get on the pony.  Of course, how could he be after little brother had already gone?
When Marshall saw Jack going for a ride, he had to go again too.

Tantrum Todd - this was his reaction when another kid got on the pony.

Baby hippos... how cute! I will always think of Jack when I see a pot-bellied pig! The pic of them riding the ponies together is priceless; they're growing up quickly.
