This little boy of mine has been obsessed with giraffes forever and on Saturday we were able to make one of his dreams come true, he got to feed a real giraffe. At our zoo, every weekend they have feeding times for the giraffes. How we didn't know about this for the last year is crazy but now that we do know I have a feeling it is going to happen many more times. You buy a cracker and the giraffe takes it out of your hand. Amazing, especially for my three year old!
Jarod was showing Jacoby how the giraffe was going to eat his cracker.
The giraffe knew it was feeding time and stood and waited. We got there early and Jarod stood in line while Jacoby and I watched the cheetahs run. Then I told him about his big surprise and he was so excited! He was the first person in line.
They have really long tongues and they move really fast! He thought it was the coolest thing ever!!!
He fed the giraffe Tessa two crackers and talked about it all day long.
Jace loved the big house, which is Jacoby's favorite exhibit as well. He was trying to get his hands on everything in there.
Jacoby took over the camera and started taking pictures of everything and he even got this great one of the three of us.
It was an amazing day! It was so much fun to see Jacoby so excited and to have one of his dreams come true!
