Sandy's Farm...

Justin works with a contractor, Sandy, who has a farm...you might could even call it a zoo. He was kind enough to let us bring the boys out to see the animals recently. He has quite the collection...

We saw zebras (yes, zebras - in North Mississippi)...
A cockatoo that said hello a lot and was very showy with his feathers... and bunny rabits...
Then we hopped on the Gators to ride to the barn...That is Sandy with Cousar, and, yes, he let Cousar drive to the barn. Justin and I rode behind with Barrett...Let's just say Cousar needs a lot more practice! He tended to overcorrect just a little...
Barrett saw Cousar drive and insisted on getting in on the action...
When we arrived to the barn there were lots of horses...so this is Barrett spent most - make that ALL - of the time on mine or Justin's hip...
Two of the horses...
Another horse that is allowed to roam the pastures. She is the oldet of their horses and was not afraid to get close...
More horses...
My favorite animal was the wallaby...they are tiny and so friendly. This is the mama...
And this is the baby. They literally carry the baby around in a purse to mimic being in a pouch. Cousar was more than eager to pet the wallaby...Barrett, on the other hand...
preferred being as far away as possible!
