Zach Meets A Real Mascot

Zach hams it up with his new friend Sparty, who was in town recently for a "tailgate party" to celebrate the opening of a new Michigan State University Alumni Chapter.


Mommy and Zach get down with Sparty at the tailgate party. Fight! Fight! Rah! Team. Fight! Victory For MSU!

A Fair To Remember

No Bull: Zach Can Ride 'Em!

It started at a Sugarland concert over the summer:

Zach's fascination with the mechanical bull and the people who ride them.

Zach's fascination with "The Bull," as he likes to call it, reached new heights last week when he got on top of one and went for a ride _ twice! _ at our county fair.

Zach's rides drew plenty of onlookers, who clapped and cheered him on.

If you're wondering whether Zach went the distance without falling, you'll have to watch the video to find out.

Yeehaw!

Cowabungee!

Jump!

Jump!

Jump!

And jump Zach did. For more than seven minutes on the bungee trampoline at our county fair.

A half-hour-long wait in line didn’t deter Zach, who was anxious to get strapped into his harness and push off into the sky with his little feet.
