Sorry for the dry spell in posts lately. We haven't been taking many pictures which means there is nothing to post. We've enjoyed having Danny home with us for the past 5 days. He has been trying to use up some vacation time before the end of the year and since we don't plan to go anywhere, he took a five day weekend. On Friday, we went to Grant's Farm. We had wanted to go and see it since the first time we visited St. Louis. It was a beautiful day to do it too. Here we are on the tram tour that takes us from the parking lot through the farm to the stop where you can get off and see some of the animals up close.
One of the highlights of the farm was feeding the goats bottles of milk. Here is Alyssa feeding one of the little goats. So cute.
Family Picture Opportunity.
Here is Alyssa in front of the miniature mules and horses.
Ashley and Danny in front of the parrots. They were startingto set stuff up for Halloween. If you look closely, you will see a scary Halloween Monster to the left of the bird, right by Ashley's head.
And how could we leave the farm without letting the girls ride on the Carousel...at least without dealing with a couple of meltdowns. It was the shortest $2 carousel ride ever (rip off), but at least they left the farm happy.
We were glad to finally go see Grant's Farm, but we decided that it was a much better activity with kids than it would have been back in 2004 when we had originally wanted to do it. We were glad that we saved it for now.
