FARE

Today we had a great morning in Portland.  FARE, the Foundation of Animal Rescue and Education, brought their show to Portland.  They are a Canadian charity committed to rescuing animals and traveling in order to educate the masses about them and how to conserve and protect them.  They have tour dates all over the place, and this is the first year I am aware of them being here!

 Both girls had a great time seeing and petting the animals.  We didn't get too many pictures of Kenzie, as we were busy helping her gently pet the animals.  Some of the animals she petted that there is no evidence of are an armadillo, turtle, rabbit, and a Bearded Dragon.  She did not touch the snake mainly because Mom is still terrified.  She also desperately wanted to touch the sloth, but since he was a baby that wasn't allowed.

This is the child who would not hold a baby alligator.  And yes, she had to use about a gallon of hand sanitizer and wash her hands before she got to come anywhere near me again, hahaha.

Kenzie tried her first cotton candy!  She loved it!
