The girls have been wanting to go to this Ranch ever since Maya missed the opportunity to go with her class as a field trip. We had 4 snowdays in one week and then the next week they had Mon. & Fri. off. We decided that we had been in the house far too long and needed something to do. We took the drive to the Lazy 5 ranch and they loved it. WE loved it also.
It's like going to a Wild Animal Park where you ride in your car and the animals come up to you. We had buckets of food to feed them and so of course they kept coming. Poor Maya was bit twice by the Ostriches. We found out later that you are supposed to hold up the bucket to them and not feed them from your hand. We just made sure to keep the windows rolled up everytime they came to the car (which was OFTEN.)
It was so cold that day but the girls wanted to get out and see the rest of the animals so we suffered through it. Poor Tim only brought a sweatshirt.
Here's a little video of McKenna feeding a llama. I love how she keeps calling him, "Llama, Llama" in her high pitched voice. This was such a fun place.
