Trip to BR

We made a trip to BR last weekend. Here are some pictures :o)

Safari!

We were invited to a super fun birthday party at Bayou Wildlife Park. We got to play w/ friends, ride a tram and feed crazy animals, and ride ponies! Here are some pictures. We had a lot of fun!

Here is Elliot on "Babe."

A day in nature

We met up with some friends at a local park. Saw cardinals, hawks, dragon & damsel fly nymphs, mosquito larvae (mom's fav), turtles, a blue heron, and lots of beautiful Texas wildflowers.



As always the nunu is on it's way back in to Elliot's mouth. It's days are numbered...


Gavin running around in the discovery garden.



Cool tractor in the background...

A cool snowy egret weather vane (apparently roosters are passe).


A little bit of bed head :o)

Birthday Bonanza!!

Well Elliot & I have birthdays in the same month. Mine was yesterday and Elliot's is in a couple weeks (on the 26th). Mom promised this won't happen often, but she combined our parties this year. She also did it last minute so several of our friends couldn't make it, but we had a really great group. We older kids (2 years plus) had a scavenger hunt in our back yard and had some pretty sweet headgear to help us out. Check us out. More pictures to come. ~Gavin
