A Day at Tanganyika Wildlife Park

The kids had Friday off from School so I took them to Tanganyika Wildlife Park.  This has to be my favorite zoo ever!  Yes, it costs tokens for about everything but where else can you have Lemurs crawl all over you, ride a camel and pet a giraffe?  The kids just love it and the staff is so good about answering all their questions.  I was amazed on how much they picked up when they were telling Chad about it last night. 

Josie wanting NOTHING to do with that camel!! Now that it is gone, she of course tells people she rode it.  Ya right. 

Just your average day petting a porcipine. 

                                        And having up to 7 Lorikeets land on you at once. 

 She was so brave with everything except that camel.  She loved the Lori's, Bunnies and Lemurs

                                                              Land on me please!!!

                                                   Ummm I didn't mean there!!!!!

Please don't eat me Mr Rino!!!

   That baby Lemur was so stinking cute.  Josie tried many times to pick it right off his mommy.  I had to hold her the remainder of the time we were in that pen as I was afraid they Lemurs would get upset if she touched the baby. 

Josie is big!

 

Apparently our little sweetie just skipped over all those toddler years and went straight from a baby to a little lady.  She thinks she is just as big as her brothers and loves to let everyone know she is "older".

Tyler skiing.

Tyler got to ski thru the trees this year.  He loved that trail. 

Actually he loves everything there is to love about skiing. 

Wesley skiing.  His friend Kendall and her mom are ahead of him. 

Winter Park Vacation

We went to Winter Park Co this year.  We had a great trip.  We all skied, went snow mobiling and tubing.    Eric took a fall and hurt his arm on the last run of the first day but he managed to have some fun anyway.  Josie stayed at home with a friend.  Skiing and being in the cold is just not too much fun for a two year old.  She had a great time with our friend Katie.  I’m sure next year she will be there trying keep up with her brothers.

Eric with his friend Kendell.  He was quite a trooper. 

Eric and Kendell played together a lot.  Her family goes to the same park as us each year so this year we just went and stayed together.

 Wesley, how are those goggles working out? 

Wesley eating a smore. 

Tyler got to try out a snow mobile by himself.  He was pretty excited. 

Josie's new look

This is pretty much how Josie looks any time we are at the farm.  We got 4 "kittens" for the farm and she drags them around everywhere she goes. I saw a sign up for free kittens and called to say we wanted them.  When I met the guy, this is what he had.  I call those cats but I guess whatever.  I'm sure with all the "lovin" they get the older the better.   She defiantly LOVES them all.  If I didn't know better I would think that cat was permanently attached to her.
