Spring Pictures

Saturday the 13th was another one of my girls' days out with my friend Rachel, who took me out for my birthday (which is next week). I just had to share this picture of this beautiful strawberry shortcake from Jason's Deli! We also spent the usual 4+ hours at Mardel ;)
 Some new chickies...bantams this time (which means they're extra small!).
 
  This one looks like Buddy! We named him Billy (short for 'silly Billy', because he is very silly ;) ).
 "Look Mommy, I found something adorable!" 3 toads in a box full of grass...
  The slide is way more fun like this!


The yard is looking pretty, Spring is finally here!

 Fluffy chicken...
 Fun on the seesaw!

Coming home last Thursday...he wanted to walk up to the house!






 And an attempt at taking some 'nice pictures'...I actually managed to get some normal ones after promising him 30 minutes of playtime before homeschool ;)
 His new bug catcher!


 Of course every other picture looked like this...






Gainesville Zoo

On April 1st, we went to the Frank Buck Zoo in Gainesville. We had been there once before, but it had been years! First, we rode the train through the park in front of the zoo...

 



 Pretty flamingos!
 Big, fat prairie dog...
 Feeding the elk was fun!




  Cute little giraffe...

 Coyote...it almost looks cute and pretty here! ;-)


 Zoo pennies...we love these!

  Wait for me!!! Second time around the zoo...
 ...and he still had plenty of energy left to play at the park outside the zoo!
