Well, maybe not lions and tigers and bears but we did see some pretty fun animals at Lazy 5 Ranch. It is part petting zoo, part African Safari and we decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and head out there last Friday with some friends. We took a carriage ride around the Ranch and got to feed lots of different kinds of animals. It was a wild experience and Ella was not fazed at all, she loves animals!
Off we go!!
The animals literally come up to the wagon to get the food but they are so calm.
The horned elk
The potbelly pig which was actually super cute!
And her little piggies, just born 2 weeks prior, so adorable:)
The water buffalo were
definitely the most interesting/disgusting animals we came across, they would just open their mouths for you to feed them. And they had this crazy long tongue that would curl up.
The zebra and the lama, just hanging out together.
One of my favorites were the giraffes, it was amazing to just see these amazing animals living just outside of Charlotte. This fellas name was Fred!!
Feeding Fred!
I think the zebra was jealous of all the attention the giraffe was getting so he came over to the wagon to say hello!
The rhino getting a suntan. The rhino did have to be separated from the rest of the animals because she is a little more
aggressive so he didn't come over to the wagon for food.
Finally,
before we left, we visited the kangaroos. We waited there for awhile to see them jump but they didn't move. But they sure were cute! After we came home from Lazy 5, we went down to Atlanta to surprise my Mom for her birthday and spent the weekend down there. We had so much fun that I didn't even get a chance to take a single picture. But I want to wish Mom(
DeeDee), a very happy birthday. Thanks for everything you do and always being there when we need you and thanks for babysitting Saturday night so Mike and I could go out with Court and Jennifer.
