Baby Animal Days!

On Friday the 10th of April we had plans to meet up with Dina and the kids so that we could all go see the baby animals at the Heritage Center in Cache Valley! It was kind of cloudy, but it was a lot of fun, and we all had a great time!

This is When we got there. This was the first time that Cael was excited to be in his stroller!!This Picture of Cael is my favorite picture of the day!! Just look at the sheer glee on his face while he is playing with the balloon that is tied to his stroller!The kids were watching a duck peck at another duck that was dead!! Gross :(The Baby cow was so cute and it must have liked whatever was on Josh's hand because it kept sucking on it!Thank Heaven's that Josh is eating a ham sandwich and not a hamburger! because we already saw the duck trying to eat the dead duck! How much cannibalism can we take in one trip?! Ha ha!Josh and Draycin are petting the cute little baby lamb!Uncle Chris showed up with little Averie, and they had us laughing all the time!!Draycin is sucking down the wonderful Capri Sun that "Dini" brought him!!!Um... The camera is over here you two!!The tiny turtles were so cute and the kids Loved holding them!Look how happy Allie and Brenton are!!!There were several pans full of little turtles all the way down the table and Allie and Brenton had to stop and hold one out of each one! Averie grabbed one and squeezed it and it wouldn't come back out of it's shell. Poor thing! I wish that I could've gotten a picture of her when it happened!Dina was keeping Cael entertained while he was stuck in his stroller! He kept smiling and laughing at her!This picture makes me cringe!! I hate snakes!!! Brenton looks a little scared himself!Here is a picture of some scorpions that we saw. If you click on the picture it will make it bigger so that you can see it better!Dina is holding Cael so that he could look at some bugs! She just loved holding him and taking him around to see things!!Here is Brenton sticking his hand in with some cockroaches! YUCK!!Brenton, Cael, Averie and me!Look how brave Allie is to hold this snake!! She held it because her mom held it, and that made her feel like she could do it too!!Cael is trying to reach through the baby bunnies cage so that he can squeeze them... I mean Love them!!Brenton and his Fohawk! We should have a competition of who can make their fohawk stand up the best!! Brenton or Cael???This was just some of us on the hay ride around the big field!Averie and Cael are ready to have a battle!!And it looks like Averie is winning! No biting chimes Aunt Shari...Allie is petting this adorable little goat that Josh wanted to buy. Luckily his better sense kicked in and we made it home without the dear thing!!Allie and Brenton by the cute little baby goats!Handsome Brenton Showcasing the bunnies for us!!Does it appear to you that Draycin is the one in the cage looking out while the bunnies are roaming free???Mommy showing Cael the cute baby bunnies!!Does it seem that things have gone awry with one of our children??? Just look at that look on Draycin's face!Gorgeous Allie, Cute Brenton and ANGRY Draycin!! He was sooo tired and he kept crying if Allie or Brenton even touched the steering wheel!! Nap time anyone??!!I had to jump in and keep Draycin from falling off the tractor because he had, had enough for the day and was going to come down whether we wanted him to or not!!!

Cael wouldn't let go of the fence and was squealing at the goat!!Brenton was hoisted atop of this huge contraption by his mother for this picture!! The funny thing is that the strapping man to the left also tries to schmoose Dina into getting on it!! How the heck is that possible??? it was like 6 feet tall!!

We all had such a great day and we even made it home in time for Draycin to catch some of a nap before we dashed over to the Easter dance in Bear River where Josh's parent's live!!
