LAZY 5 RANCH





While we were in NC last weekend we had a great time with Aunt Adriane, Haley and Lauren at the Lazy 5 Ranch. Aunt Adriane had booked us on the wagon ride through what I call a Safari type ride that gives us buckets of feed for the animals along the way. It was very hot, and at times Nico was a little fussy, but to see his eyes when the animals came up to the wagon was awesome!! I think he especially like the Giraffesthat were in a cage and even so the kids still got to put their buckets up to his or her head and the Giraffes would take the food from the buckets. We also saw baby pigs (too cute), baby birds, and baby does (I think that's what they are called)...it just made me want to pick them up and take them home!

I think Nico's favorite part was when the Bison (I think) came up to Nico and stuck out his tongue for some food...it was huge! He grabbed a few pieces and then grabbed onto me not knowing what to do!!!! That was a priceless moment for me!!! We also got to see a Zebra and a Yak, and maybe Aunt Adriane can tell us all the other animals but it was hard to keep up with Nico and what the tour guide was saying.
All and all even though it was really hot, it was definitely a fun day for the kids and then it was off to Aunt Andi and Uncle John's pool to cool off!!! We'll Nico took a nap, but afterwards he had fun in the sun!!!

Until Next time.....
