family fun – we are all actually smiling and looking at the camera – a miracle perhaps
It was a sunny and beautiful MLK Day in Atlanta yesterday. We wanted to do something fun and outdoors with the boys so I did what all moms do – headed to the internet and Facebook to find a fun filled activity.
please eat my food
Thanks to a couple of FB friends who steered me in the right direction! It happened to be $1 day at The Yellow River Game Ranch. This meant the 4 of us got in for $1 each!
We opted to take the stroller in since we were told it’s a 1.5 mile hike around the trail. It actually didn’t seem that long but maybe that’s because we were having so much fun!
hiking – well, sorda
please come here little deer
We purchased the snacks of carrots and corn from the nice lady taking the money. But we it seemed since there were plenty of small hands stretched through the fences holding food, the animals weren’t so hungry.
The boys certainly tried their best to feed every animal they could. They had an occasional taker.
yo sheep, eat this carrot please!
So often (with twin 2 year olds) these sorts of trips can go wrong … fast. But in all, it was a great trip. The ranch is near Stone Mountain Park which took us only about 25 minutes to get there.
here little piggy, sewwweeeee
No, the property isn’t perfectly manicured but we didn’t care. That’s the way a real farm looks anyway. I had been there a couple of times before doing live shots on Groundhog Day for General Beau Lee. It was always so early and dark, I could never see all of the other animals.
PS — I did notice on their website they are having another $1 days February 17th. Check it out!
Happy Tuesday!
