Goebbert's Farm 2011

Last year we went to Goebbert's with Elsa but this year we went with Linnea and her girls. We went on a Wednesday and it was so much less crowded than a Friday. I still love this place and recommend it to anyone in the area. Addison and Caroline definitely enjoyed it more this year too.

Last year we skipped the giraffes because I did not want to take the stroller up there when it was so crowded but we went this year and they did not disappoint.  So cool to be so up close to them!

You could buy carrot sticks to feed to them.  This was as close to feeding them as Gwen and Sonja got.  Addison and Caroline would not get close to them.


 Their selection of animals is crazy to me.  They have a lot of regular ones like deer and barn animals but then they have animals like tigers and bears.  Oh my!

Kangaroos were there...obviously

Llama

Zebra of course

Exotic bird

Deers and Addison

Gwen petting the cute piglets.  I would have taken one home if they let me and if they could guarantee they would stay that size.

A cow mid "moooooooo."  Addison was just to my left when I took this picture and the "moo" freaked her out!  What was even better was that this cow got all the other barn animals wound up because they all started making noises including the donkey!  It was comical hearing them go all at the same time.

Pony rides for Gwen and Sonja!  Sonja was very excited because her pony pooped right at the end :)

These pumpkins were a foot short of Addison and Caroline
