Emaline & Piper's First Trip to Grant's Farm!

On Saturday, the 22nd, we met my sister, her husband and Kaya at Grant's Farm for an impromptu family outing. Joshua had worked the night before and we needed to get out of the house to let daddy sleep for a little bit. So...packed up the girls and headed southward around 10:00am. What time did we get into the park? 11:40am. Yes, it took us about 25-30 minutes to get there and then another hour and 10 minutes to actually get on a tram and get into the gates of the farm. Crazy I know, but it was a fundraiser weekend and a absolutely beautiful day, I think one of the 10 best we've had this year. After we finally got inside, Stephani got the girls the little Fun Passes they offer that get you two bottles of milk to feed the goats, a ride on the carousel and a snow cone. Good deal for $5 and in the parking lot they were giving out free hot dogs and drink vouchers for kids under 10! Score. One hot dog for Em and one for Mommy (Piper isn't ready for tubed meat yet, but I still got one for her). I think the girls had a great time getting attacked by goats--Kaya being knocked down and Emaline getting her hair eaten. Ouch! :-) They also saw parrots, camels, an eagle and some famous Budweiser Clydesdale horses. A lot of fun, but now I know an all day affair! Excited for our next trip.
