Due to crazy fall schedules, etc, we just celebrated Owen's birthday on Sunday, October 2nd....by going to the Lazy 5 Ranch! I have never been before but Sarah (sis-in-law) had and said it was so fun so we decided to do that for Owen's birthday festivities.....
We went late afternoon and Oliver, Dad and I went in my car while Owen, Mom, Sarah, Blake, Gavin & Drew rode in the wagon (there was no way that Oliver was going to be able to ride in the wagon, there were too many escape opportunities and he would be a hot mess running all over that wagon! Better to keep him confined in a carseat!).....it was so much fun! There were so many animals around and some of them would come right up to the car looking for food (which we had in a bucket). Oliver was a little wary of them at first but he relaxed after a bit and really enjoyed it. It was just about the perfect length, as soon as I was ready for the tour to be over, it was :) We followed that up by checking out some goats, sheep and camels in another part of the ranch where we could touch them and feed them.....Then we celebrated with lemon squares and presents! We love Owen!
Highland Cow and some other cow
EMU!
Vietnamese Pot-bellied pigs
Eland (I think)
Ostrich
This dude was a little aggressive.... or hungry.....I had to roll my window up so he would go away when we were done feeding him! :)
