North Carolina Vacation






My dream came true!!! I got to feed the giraffes. We went to a really neat ranch called Lazy 5. They had a bunch of different animals, including zebras, giraffes, a rhino, Texas Long-horns, reindeer and a bunch of other animals. We rode in the back end of the truck and drove around and fed the animals. The girls enjoyed it immensely.





We went to the mountains one day. The older two really enjoyed it. Here they are sitting up a mile high. We went across the mile high swing bridge at Grandfather Mountain. It was a good time.


We also went to the caverns. We went down and saw the limestone hanging in the caves. It was pretty interesting and Megan actually learned something down there and repeated it. They seemed to have a good time.


The vacation was great and it was wonderful to spend some time with our great friends down there. But, as a mom and a girl, I was ready to come home and get things back to normal.


As you can see, we had a lot of long days and Madi just did not want to get up and be a part of the group at the end of one of them. She is sleeping on an oversized footstool. What a silly little girl!!!!
