Petting Zoo(s) !

Our next-door neighbor has his own farm where he raises chickens. For Easter he brought home a bunch of fertilized eggs so his daughter could watch them hatch. We were lucky enough to join in on the fun! The kids were so enthralled, they loved holding the little chicks.

Yesterday I was giving Anjuli a hard-boiled egg to eat and she said, " Mommy, where's the chick??"

Today we went to Naomi's baby luau--it was amazing! In addition to many jumps and kiddie rides they had a full on petting zoo with pony rides, cotton candy, face painting, balloon twisting and shave ice. It was just like a carnival, but better, because it wasn't crowded and everything was FREE!

Anjuli loved her pony ride. Hopefully she doesn't ask for one for Christmas...

Zion just hung on for dear life.

Noelle was a natural. She's been hanging out with us since her mom just had a baby--Yay!!

A little timid at first, the kids quickly warmed up to the pig, sheep, cow, and llamas.

I love this picture of the girls holding hands. I so want Anjuli to have a sister! (no, I'm not pregnant :)

Helicopter ride--Zion screamed the whole time.

Kinda hard to see, but Anjuli's in the red one. We stayed here for at least 20 minutes. With no lines, the kids just kept jumping back in.

Happy 1st Birthday, Naomi! Thanks for the awesome party!!
