Little Ray's Reptile Zoo

Hi!
Yesterday morning we took Alyssa to Little Ray's Reptile Zoo. It was sooo neat!! Alyssa really enjoyed watching the animals and was more interested in the one's that kept moving. She really liked the Turtles and the 2 baby (3-4month old) skunks that they rescued. At the turtles she kept saying "turtle" it was cute.
We saw lots of snakes, caiman, alligator's, crocs, and turtles. Then we were told to meet up in the big room cause it was hands on time. So in there we got to see a Barn Owl, a gecko, a Tarantula, the baby skunks, a caiman. We got to pet and touch them all. When it came to the baby skunks we got to hold them. :) That was soo neat! I would NOT how ever hold the tarantula, I let Trent do that. LOL but I don't like spider's! It was cool to look at but I didn't want to touch it. Oh we did get to hold the gecko too. Alyssa held it too. That was neat.
Too bad we couldn't get any picture's. Maybe when she's older we can that way she knows not to squish them.
It was a really fun zoo. Can't wait to take her back when she's older..
You can see the zoo here.
P.S.
You should of seen the size of the Iguana's they had!! They dwarfed my iguana that I had! Holy Crap they were big!!!! LOL

Sat night dinner party at Grandma Stinsons

So yesterday we went to Trent's Mom's house for dinner. We left after lunch and headed over. Alyssa and I got to help pickle some cucumber's, onions and bell peppers. Gosh Alyssa LOVED the bell peppers from the brine! LOL She must of had 4 strips!
She also liked watching Grandma cut up apple for the homemade apple pie. But it was just watching because she had just woken up from a nap. (we had just got there) and she wasn't to sure who this "Grandma" person was first thing.
We had to dig up some potatoes from the garden so she helped with that and liked it! She had her little garden gloves on that Grandma bought her, little metal rake, and the other garden tools that Grandma got. It was cute and Trent and I were kicking ourselves that we didn't have the camera! Oh well next time we head out I'm bringing it!
The only thing she didn't like about digging up the potatoes was the washing them after, that water was COLD!
Later Grandma and her went back to the garden and picked a nice bell pepper. She wanted to eat it right then and there! The little turkey! I think she even tried to eat one of the raw red potatoes too! HAHAHA
So for dinner she had some BBQ pork roast, some cauliflower with white sauce, her potato and for dessert it was the pie and cool whip!
