We recently enjoyed a fantastic visit with Katherine and Vince. The photo above is from the 'Out of Africa Safari Zoo' which has some awesome animals and a really great tiger splash show. The weather during that day was horrible and we actually could have used winter rain gear. We didn't get to do the whole park because of the darn weather. It was very expensive for a Zoo so far out of our way and don't know if I would go back but it was definitely worth going to once.We did lot's of shopping and cooking and just hanging out. I hope they come back soon. Vince made an amazing Carbonara. It was a huge portion that lasted several meals but no way did one single noodle get wasted.
During Katherine and Vince's stay we were invited up to Vince's uncles cabin for the day. The kids had an awesome time and where even horseback riding. Can you believe Isi on this huge horse all by herself? Isi was in heaven and it was almost impossible to get her off. I have never been so close to a horse that I remember and actually was leading him around, that was pretty cool.
I'll have to add more puppy pictures next time. They are growing too fast and really starting to lighten up. The girls and I took them swimming with very interesting results. Clara hates the water and will try to get out as soon as you put her in, while Jackson wants to keep going and will actually turn away from the way out if you bring him to the stairs before he is ready to come out. The most interested thing they did was when Clara was frantic to climb out of the pool in the wrong spot Jackson came along, grabbed her by the back of the neck and yanked her out. I was completely amazed. I wonder if that's what they'll be doing to us when they get bigger?
