In which a sheep bites Lucy

A few months ago there was a groupon for This Is the Place Heritage Park in Salt Lake City.  Since we live about 10 minutes away, I decided that we should check it out. 

Our first stop was the mini pioneer village!  It was very cute -- we had fun taking lots of pictures of Lucy.  






















Our next stop was the petting zoo!  Lucy was having a fun time petting the goats and sheep, and even started laughing when the sheep licked her fingers.  Okay, at this point I probably should have clued in, and moved Lucy's hand away from the sheep's mouth.  Sadly, I did not, and the next thing I know, Lucy is crying hysterically because the sheep bit her!  Poor girl.  I just hope she's not traumatized for life!

Pony ride!
We also went on a train ride, a mini train ride, learned about pioneer chores, and made arrowhead necklaces.  All in all, we had a pretty fun time.  Hey, I might even go again -- especially since I have still have one groupon left.  =)

Mini Train ride!

Great photos! Sorry about the sheep :Uncle Shane was bitten by a seagull. Andrew has also been bitten by a seagull -on a whale watching boat - and to top that he's been bitten by a swan. Let me mention that swans are large (6 ft tall) and aggressive. Did he provoke the swan? well yeah

silly sheep. that is way i HATE petting zoos. not that my kids have been bitten, but the possibility creeps me out. our friends kid went to a more exotic petting zoo and a kangeroo attacked the kid. Jumped right up on her. yikes! I also love the photo of you and luz on the train.
