I'm originally from Washington state where I had hoped to return after college, but it wasn't meant to be (at least not yet). I came all the way to BYU in Utah to get my education and ended up finding Nathan, my husband, who is also from my hometown, and who I dated in high school. Why I had to come all this way beats me. I did finish my degree in Early childhood education in April 2000, however, we decided to start a family rather than have me teach. Kirsten was born in Feb. 2001, then Zachary in Nov. of 2002 and Caleb in Sept. 2006. Now my life is my family and my full time- lifetime job is wife and mother.
One of the animal keepers brought out one of the baby lambs and let the kids pet it with their whole hand and not just a finger through the fence. Here the kids are feeding this momma sheep one corn piece at a time through the fence. The kids were so good to stay with us. Here's Lona Marie taking out time to feed the goats herself while Taylor is content to watch from the stroller. Those goats were pretty forceful and pushy when it came to sharing the food. Caleb didn't stay in this area too long. The smell of the rabbits was pretty ripe on a hot day like today. We were tempted to just leave the kids here and go get some other errand done, but they figured out how to get out. They loved playing in the miniature jail and dance hall.
