Baby Animal Days

We had such a great time at Baby Animal Days this year. I think this is the third time I've taken the kids and they had a blast! There is so much to see and do it is so fun. It is held at the American West Heritage Center, which is like a living farm from the 1800s. Every year around Easter they hold this event and they basically have tons of baby animals that you can look at, touch, hold, pet or feed. They had baby goats, horses (miniature and reg), cows, pigs, sheep, chicks, ducks, bunnies, even baby bears, and turtles. So, so cute. Not only do they have the animals they have a ton of other fun stuff. A kids rodeo, greased pull climb, the bull ride, blow-up jump houses, wagon rides, train rides, horse rides, crafts and so much more. It was such a beautiful day and the boys and I had a really good time. Owen and Porter checking out the miniature baby horse, only mama is in the pic

Hayden wanted to ride the bull. He stayed on almost the whole time.

Owen wanted to ride too. He got on and then Porter and Hayden started to chant 'fall, fall, fall' so he let go...and I was yelling hold on!! It was cute.

We went on a wagon ride and they let us get a picture with the horses. Haha, the kids were so nervous. I love this picture!

What a great day

Oh! I just love these guys!!
