In late April, I took the kids (minus Becca...the consequence of some bad decisions was to miss out on this field trip) to a local "farm". It's actually an animal rescue -they have hundreds of rescued animals...dogs, goats, pig, camel, llamas, horses...I swear, you name it, they've rescued it.
Some of the animals are on display (for lack of a better term) for you to visit, feed, pet. They even offer pony rides ~not just a wimpy walk-around-in-a-circle ride....they saddle up a pony and take you on a tour around the farm! It was too hot to do a pony ride the day we visited...but I promised the kids we'd come back in the Fall.

this is James the camel.he was at our local zoo and supposed to be the camel you could ride -but he was lazy and lost his job. :)
he was super friendly and just wanted you to feed him!
miniature horses
a zonkey ~1/2 zebra 1/2 donkey
if you look behind the mama, you can see the baby -I think it was only 2 weeks old.
big fat pig!

So glad you are back in blogland. Only a good friend would continue to check your blog every other day, even with NADA! xoxo
That petting zoo/farm (can't think of the name at the moment) is the best undiscovered secret in the east valley. It's cheap and the animals are RIGHT THERE! Let's go back together when we can take a ride on the horses and with Becca!
