Wickenburg, AZ

We have driven through Wickenburg many times in the last ten years, on our way to visit my parents in Las Vegas.  This trip was to visit a friend of Justin's that lives there, for the girls to see her animals, and to pick up some fresh eggs!  It was a very nice morning, cloudy and not too hot.  We started out by feeding the llamas and alpaca.

Jaelyn was so cute - she loved looking at and pointing to the animals.  At a distance, anyway.  =)

Then, a couple of the horses were brought up from their pasture.

The owner asked, "Who wants to go first?!?"  And there was Paige, "MEEEEE!"  

Love her.

When it was Lauren's turn, she said she didn't really want to.  Chasing a lizard up the road instead.  I just said, "Come on."  Took her by the hand, walked her over, and Justin hoisted her up before she had a chance to think about it too much.

I think she was pretty glad she did.

Then Jaelyn got a turn just to sit.  She was less than enthusiastic. 

Kids are so much fun!

Then we got a tour of the chicke area, which made me re-think my adamant "No" to keeping chickens. She has a really great set-up!

That big guy is one of her two "Trader Joe's chickens" that she incubated from a carton of their fertile eggs!  That is just amazing!

It was a great time!  We planning on heading back since their eggs were yummy!
