Petting Zoo at Public Library

Traveling can be a challenge for us. Especially, for long extended periods of time.
So this trip, we split the gang. With 6 of us and 2 dogs, it can get a bit 'crowded'.
We have such a WONDERFUL extended family, and they willfully accepted the 'opportunity' to watch over our 'pups'....
Thank you Again,  SOOOOO much!

I drove up to leave our dogs, and only had our youngest 2.
In our travels, we were encouraged by Grandma to go to an event at the Larchmont, Norfolk Public Library.
The public Library has a very impressive range of activities to choose from, these days. It has come along way from  the traditional 'story-time'...
Which of course, as a child, is ALWAYS MAGICAL.
But in our pursuit to find cheap/free fun...
THE PUBLIC LIBRARY, fits the bill to a T.
For adults as well. 
Check into your local Library. Their websites are usaully very detailed.
Mr Fuzzy Feet...
This Event was brought to the Library Grounds by
Beach Party Ponies  http://beachpartyponies.com 
If you are in the Tidewater Area...
From Hampton down to Moyock...
You could take advantage of this service.
They are a 'mobile petting zoo', amongst other things.
So if you are in need of some very friendly barn animals at your next soiree, consider giving them a call.
They are not over the top, just good 'clean' fun.


They all took turns brushing

Many, Many, Many Brushes on hand


Hearts were popping up everywhere, during our trip.
Can you guess what this is?

See the display eggs?

See the Child's hand inspecting display eggs

Poor guy, he wasn't expecting that.
Pardon the Blur, I wasn't expecting it either.

All the Animals were very calm,
Hands were everywhere,
and they did not seem to mind at all.

Now, that is a real live 'My Little Pony'

Thought he was mad at first,
But then I noticed a little boy scrubbing his back side,
And then I realized,
He was not mad at all...
He was in Heaven!

This guy was pretty happy too!
In all, it was an unexpected, fun event. And, because it was hosted by The Public Library, it was FREE!

declaimer :)... for the sweet boy I do not think that egg was knowingly placed in the basket, all the others were cracked and cleaned...BUT kudos to his momma, she handled it very well, better then I think I would have :)
There is nothing more endearing then little ones, holding hands
