St. Louis Trip

Earlier this summer, we took a trip to St. Louis for our first 'family vacation'. We went to the zoo, Grant's Farm, the Magic House, and of course did some shopping. As expected, Macy absolutely LOVED seeing all the animals and really had no fear when it came to getting up close to them.

We went to the zoo first, it was a HOT day!! Here are some pics:






Next we went to Grant's Farm, which I was really impressed with since I really had no idea what to expect. You could get closer to the animals, which was neat. Macy got to feed baby goats from a bottle, which she really enjoyed. We first went inside the fenced in area to feed them, but they were literally jumping all over her for the bottle (which amazingly didn't faze her), so we quickly decided feeding them from the other side of the fence was a better option!

Drum roll please....... this next pic is my fav from the trip. I prefer to believe that the camel was giving Macy a kiss as opposed to possibly thinking she would be a tasty snack!! Did I mention that animals were much closer at Grant's Farm than at the zoo?!!

Our last stop was at the Magic House which was a little crazy with all the kids running around, but there was a lot of stuff for Macy to check out and try, so she had a great time.

Here is a great pic of Macy and daddy during the trip:

All in all the trip was a success and we will definitely be doing it again!
