Fritz Park Petting Farm

I need to start a hashtag for when Cory finds fun free stuff for us to do.  #SuperMom #QueenOfTheDeal

Today's adventure was the Fritz Park Petting Farm.  It isn't very far from where we live, so we decided to check it out.  When we pulled up, Emmy seemed excited by the front entrance.


The little farm wasn't crowded at all, so we just strolled around.  They have goats, sheep, donkeys, chickens, peacocks, ducks, a turkey, a mini cow, and a mini horse.  You can't pet the birds, but you can pet everything else.  Emmy, however, did not want to.  She was content to observe from afar.


She seemed very interested in the pony, but then anytime we approached, she leaned as far away as possible and tried crawling over Cory's shoulder.


You can go into a little area where the goats are fenced in, so Emmy got pretty close in there if we were right next to her, but she still was pretty nervous.  


After the goats we headed over to the little mini cow/ox hybrid looking animal.  Right when Emmy was standing right next to the fence it let out a big "Moo!"  It freaked Emmy out!  She immediately started running in a circle, which we have never really seen her do, and then she ran over to us.  I'm glad we went, but we now are wondering why Emmy is so afraid of touching animals.  Are all kids like this?
