We ventured out on a rare
70 degree day in January
and visited the Heard Nature Park!
We crossed our fingers Dan would
enjoy riding with Dad.
Because if he didn't...
well...let's just say,
with all the other kids around
he didn't have much of a choice!
Ben is all set for some quality
outdoor time!
Emma could run the whole route...
TWICE,
if we let her.
Sydney was great at keeping
us on track by being our map reader.
A museum worker brought a snake
for the kids to pet,
while we stood in line.
Is that a smiley face?
Success!
He likes it!
We stop for a quick picnic lunch
before we venture out.
Gotta load up on some protein.
Dr. Ben was ready with a bag
full of first aid gear...
just in case!
Emma & Sydney took turns
carrying the family water bottle.
Little Miss Hesitant was
comfortable with a hand to hold
at first but soon after noticing
the LARGE dinosaurs
making recorded noises...
she was D-O-N-E.
For 2/3rds of the walk she screamed,
cried and needed to be carried
because those darn plastic dinosaurs
were just WAAAY too scary.
Thankfully all of the other kids
enjoyed them.
A cute log cabin to investigate.
We're 1/2 way done and Dan is still
all smiles.
As for Larry's back?
That's another story.
A picture with Mom.
I was tempted to delete this photo
but the kids insisted this picture
was QUALITY.
Personally it grosses me out.
And completely unnecessary
at a family nature walk.
Afterward Keira relaxed as she
watched animals stuck in a cage.
What a great Saturday excursion!

What a great hike and I agree about that one gory display. We had one of those baby back packs for Sarah and I have sure kicked myself for giving it away. Have wished many times that it was still here the last 6 years!
what a fun saturday Family Adventure!
