Girls' Birthdays

We decided to combine the girls' birthdays this year and have a petting zoo party with all of their friends. Makenzie and Ashlyn love animals so they were very excited to spend the morning petting, holding, and feeding various animals. The particular petting zoo we booked through Cathy's Critters provided guinea pigs, goats, chickens, rabbits, pigs, a llama and a duck. They also provided all the feed, hand sanitizer, did the set up and clean up afterward, so other than making the cakes/cupcakes, we didn't have to do too much. The girls had a blast, but I'm pretty sure the animals were eager to return to their cages after 20+ kids handled them for over and hour!
I love the last picture of Grandma helping Ashlyn carry the goat back to the trailer as all the animals were rounded up to leave. I think for her, this was the highlight of the party!!!!

Great pictures Stephanie! I know my boys had TONS of fun and would have loved to stay instead of go to Zach's soccer game! I have pictures I need to get to you that I took at the party, but it will probably be after WDW and our move.

Cute cupcakes! Looks like a fun party. Can you believe Makenzie will start kindergarten? They've grown up so fast!
