When we got the the riding stables they were not quite ready for us but Caroline was able to feed this baby goat from a bottle and then got to hold her. She thought that was the greatest thing. Here is Caroline getting ready to ride her very own horse all by herself. She is such a big girl now. We wanted her to ride with us, mainly because it was cheaper but since she is a big girl at 4 she got to ride the horse all by herself.
Here we are at the end of our horse back ride. Caroline did a great job holding on when going up and down the very steep hills... one of which was called "devil's slide". Oh, my horses name is "Rat", Caroline's is "Buddy" and Greg's is "Daisy" but we called her Lazy Daisy because she had one pace... that is right slow! Family Photo

After the horse ride we went to the petting zoo. Here Caroline is feeding the deer. There were all kinds of animals she could feed. We were only allowed to go in the pin with the deer and goats. When we were in with the deer Caroline would walk up to them and say "excuse me is this your house" then pointed to the barn... she repeated it several times because they never answered her. Then she went up to another deer and said "can I ride on your friend". Crazy girl. The deer were all laying down and I made sure to tell her she was not allowed to get on their backs and ride them.

This was pretty nasty. The camel pretty much puts all hands in it's mouth and slobbers all over them... yuck!
