About twice a year we spend the day at this amazing park/zoo about 40 minutes from our home. They have a train we ride first all around the grounds. Next are the horses. This year Zackary expressed a lot of interest in wanting to try horseback riding. 10 minutes later he was trotting away and we were amazed! He loved it...it was so cute seeing him bouncing up and down with a big smile on his face.
The zoo is always fun and educational. This day we fortunate to learn about mountain lions. We saw how they train them, keep them healthy and feed them. We were really close too so the kids were fascinated.
The rest of the zoo animals seemed to be sleeping so we headed to the petting zoo. While brushing the goats we noticed a couple of them fighting and having some issues. The zoo attendants put them in a time out. Emme also, as you can see, put herself in a time out-and to this day it is one of my favorite pouting pictures of her!
A huge pond is located in the middle of the park. There were many ducks and some geese eating and sleeping the day away.
We took a break to play in the huge trees and take in the beautiful scenery all around us. Till next time...maybe Christmas for the lights covering the park!
