Goebbert's with Aunt Lisa

Last Sunday while Jack was in Michigan with Andy, Charlotte and I went with Aunt Lisa to Goebbert's Pumpkin Farm. The weather was bad most of the day, but we lucked out and at least for an hour and a half we had no rain. Charlotte was feeling shy about getting her picture take with Scooby-Doo for some reason.
We saw all sorts of animals. Charlotte wouldn't get too close to the long-tongued giraffes, but she liked to watch other people feed them. When we first got there, she had ran up to the top of the giraffe obervation deck without understanding what was up there. She barged right to the front of the fence and came face-to-nose with a giraffe looking for carrots. She backed off after that :)
Cute baby piggies! Charlotte loves to make pig noises so she definitely had lots of opportunities at the farm.

Pigs racing for Oreos!
Charlotte was not as big a fan of the camels, but at least we got a picture with Aunt Lisa here.

Checking out the little kangaroos.
This was by far Charlotte's favorite animal. She spent several minutes just standing here watching the tiger cubs. Not that I could blame her much; they were very cute.
She really wanted to pet him.
The baby goat really wanted Charlotte to give him some food. I chose not to buy any food so Charlotte could feed the animals. I didn't want her to get bitten or have to deal with the mess, and in the back of my mind I was also worried she might try to eat the food herself.
And of course she loved the monkeys just like her brother.
