Our second St. Louis day was taken up with visiting Grant’s Farm and Ted Drews. For those of you not from St. Louis Grant’s Farm is named after its previous owner, Ulysses S. Grant. It is now owned by the Anheuser Bush family. They have a wildlife area where animals from all over the world roam. There is a tram that takes visitors all through the area so you can see the different animals. The tram ride ends at a park where there are parrots, monkeys, turtles, elephants, eagles and several animals to see. They have a baby goat yard where guests can feed baby goats bottles. That’s where William and I are in the first several pictures. 
That's me walking into the yard, Russ videoing it and Dad's the one taking the pictures.
William did great. I thought he would scream and want to get out of there but we actually were able to fee the whole bottle to the greedy goats and after that William even managed to walk a few steps on his own before they started nibbling at him. It's so fun to do things with your kids that your parents did with you when you were little.
Gran'ts farm has a German theme so you end at the German beer garden where they serve complimentary samples of their brew. We tasted the Imbev beer, not very good, and had a pretzel.
Russ had never seen Clydesdales in person before. This is a momma and her foal. They really are huge animals.
Okay, for those of you who care to comment, which of these two pictures do you think I should pick as the facebook picture and the blog profile picture?

glad william wasn't afraid of the goats. :) and as for the pictures, i like the first one better, but for a profile pic, the 2nd one works better i think because it is closer. and it is a good pic too. :)
I like the second picture best. I think you have a prettier smile in that one.
The second! =)
