Saturday Family Day


After all our soccer and baseball games we went to the Idaho Center in Nampa to a Boys and Girls Club Family day. The kids had a fun time riding horses, playing laser tag, climbing the rock wall and petting the animals in the petting zoo. There were also arts and crafts, a cake walk , and a reptile exhibit.







This is a sea turtle at the reptile exhibit. The kids also touched a giant python!



We had 6 out of the 11 cake walk positions and we still didn't win a cake!



Bailey did all the arts and crafts stations. Here she is frosting a sugar cookie. She also made a pet rock, a picture frame and a paper bag puppet.



This is Ryann and Lexy on the rock wall.Tren on the rock wall.



In this game the kids all had to work together to walk. They all moved their right foot at the same time, and then the left.... they did really good!





They absolutely loved the petting zoo! Here Ryann and Bailey are petting the sheep and baby goats.




Ryann, Lexy and Tren acting like animals.



Bailey and a sheep. Her favorite was this little white goat.




The kids loved this Alpaca. It was so soft and friendly!


Coopie hugging the alpaca!

All the kids and the Zebra. They couldn't pet him because he bites!



Tren and Cooper both rode the "big" horse. All the rest were miniature horses.

Ryann LOVED this little white horse! She talked about him the rest of the day. Bailey also loved riding this little horse. They all wanted to ride again, but the line was too long.

We were all exhausted at the end of the day, but we had a great time. We went straight to Wendy's and cashed in our free Frosty coupons!!

So wish we could have gone. We got our garden planted though. I love all of your family pictures on the side. Those are precious!

This looks fun! I didn't hear anything about it. I'm sorta in my own little "zone" these last few weeks of school though!
