Grant's Farm


We had a great time at Grant's Farm today! We started with a tram ride tour and saw lots of animals along the way - geese, deer, black-bellied antelope (the male's bellies turn black in adulthood), elk, Texas longhorns, Irish steers, donkeys, horses, and wild turkeys. 



When we got off the tram, we got a Fun Pass so Beckett could give the goats two bottles of milk, ride the carousel, and at a snow cone. The goats were our first stop and they were well-trained. As soon as get saw the bottles, they attacked us! It cracked us all up. Beckett was laughing when the goat ate my dress. :) 

Beckett wanted to wrestle this one: 

Then we rode the carousel. Beckett wanted to ride the dragon!
Then we watched an animal show with lots of birds, including owls? Hawks, a bald eagle, two macaws, and (Beckett's favorite) a wild boar, ala Pumba. 

Then we walked through a mist bridge and got a snow cone. Can you guess what color he picked??
The grand finale was seeing the African elephant and riding a camel! The camel's name was Ruby and Beckett kept saying, "I'm riding the wump of the hump," which comes from Dr. Seuss's book, One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. Hilarious! He loved it!


Sissy had a great day, too!
