Long Weekend With Grammy


My Mom came down to Virginia from NY for Jaylee's K5 graduation and stayed with us for a few days.  It was so nice on Friday that we decided to take the kids to Wilson's Wild Animal Park.  It's mainly farm animals but they have some exotic birds, monkeys, bears and a lion.


This turkey was HUGE and very grumpy!!  He came to the fence, ruffled his feathers and let out a really loud gobble!!  We all jumped and Marshall took off running!  It was hilarious.



The lemur had babies.  One on her back and one on her belly.  It was so cool to watch her climb and jump with the babies strapped to her.



Feeding the deer!



This goat loved Jaylee.  It followed her up and down the fence line.


All and all it was fun.  It's not the best place.  There wasn't a place where you could actually go in with the goats and deer and feed them.  You could only feed them through the fence.  It was nice because it's fairly small and easy for the kids to walk it and not get tired.  They had a really good time, plus it is really close to our house.  We saw lots of baby animals.


Sawyer slept pretty much the whole time we were there!


Look he's a tree hugger like his Mommy!



Rock climbing!



We went out to dinner on Saturday night to celebrate Mother's Day.  Mom was leaving to go back on Sunday morning, so we did dinner Saturday night.


These kids love their Grammy SO much!


Sawyer did a good job at the restaurant.  We had to wait quite a while for our table and I forgot his bottle.  He was satisfied with his baby food, and I shared my sweet potato and green beans with him.  I gave him drinks of water with my straw.

We had a wonderful visit with my Mom.  It's hard living so far away, but we have plenty of trips planned for New York this summer!!

Peace and love.....
