A visit to the goat farm

Last week we visited the goat farm as part of the Rec department's summer program. There must have been about 100 people there! Nina had a wonderful time feeding and petting the goats. She especailly liked "walking" some of the ones that were on leashes. They were quite a bit smaller than Thunder, so she was a pro at it. She cried when we had to go home and leave the goats behind. she wanted to take one home! (They were cute!)

Enjoying the Summer

I know it's been a while since I posted, but the summer goes so dang fast! It is so easy to let it slip away! Anyway, we have enjoyed the summer so far and had a special visitor a few weeks ago - Ellen. Nina had so much fun with her and continues to talk about her. We were busy while she was here, visiting Yellowstone, some caverns, a "ghost town," and just hanging around. The bear was not really this close - zoom lens!

More Happy Hollow

Happy Hollow

We also visited Happy Hollow, a park with a few rides and a zoo with a petting zoo. Again, the rides were a big hit. Nina also liked feeding the animals. There were donkeys, sheep, goats and a cow. Some of the animals were a little more "hungry" than others.

More Gilroy Gardens

Gilroy Gardens

We went to Gilroy Gardens in Gilroy. It is a family amuzement park with lots of rides for young children. Nina had a blast and loved the rides. She kept asking for "more." There are also many beautiful gardens in the park, although we didn't get to see too much of that since we were busy on the rides all day.

Seth's Graduation

Seth graduated at the Rose Garden in San Jose on Wednesday. Here's a picture of the three cousins. Nina doesn't look too sure about it, but she did have a good time getting to know her cousins.
