We had so much fun.
We started off with a horse-drawn, covered wagon ride all around the grounds. I think it must have lasted about an hour. Everyone got a little bucket of feed and all the animals came right up to the wagon to eat during the ride. It was really neat. Holden loved the 2 big draft horses pulling us and he had lots of fun feeding and trying to pet all the animals who came over for a snack. Even Bridger did really good, just sitting/standing with Grandma and watching all the excitement.
Then after the wagon ride we walked around in the little zoo/petting zoo area. All the kids had fun going in the "pasture" to pet the small animals.
And we finished with a picnic lunch under the pavilion (packed by Grandma) and were on our way home just as it started to get really hot out. So it all worked out great!
And, of course, I took lots of pictures :)
The first animal we got to feed: Eeyore the donkey.

He got really close
So we gave him a nibble

Feeding an elk all by himself
A water buffalo and an emu. Or something like that.
This guy pecked his big beak in the bucket too fast for my liking. But Grandpa wasn't scared!
He was really big

Zebras
Here comes a llama...
He was getting good at holding on tight and feeding some of them all by himself
