Nature Walk

Well, we started the day off going to the zoo. Jack was SO excited, he barely slept the night before. With just our luck, we pulled into the zoo parking lot and there was a big sign saying they were closed for the day. What?! How can the zoo be closed? So now, we get the great task of telling Jack that we can't go. What a disappointment. (This actually happened to us 2 times in a row, if you can believe that. A couple of months prior we tried to go to the zoo in Dallas with Grandma and Grandpa, but it was closed because they had filled capacity. And now this!)

Daddy had a great idea, though. We could go to the Nature Center that was in the same area. Great! Jack was all excited to be able to go for a LONG walk outside. So, off we went to the nature center. Now, keep in mind, we had just come off of a couple days of rain, so we were a little worried about the conditions of the trails...as well we should have been! ha, ha

All in all it was a great day! We got a little muddy, but Jack loved looking at the flowers and listening to the bugs and frogs. We saw tadpoles in the murky swamp waters and even a snake! (Momma wasn't too thrilled with that.) We were hot and tired by the end of the trail, but it was so much fun watching him explore and discover new things!





Ugh! There go the white shoes!
