WIldlife Park Videos

These videos speak for themselves. Again, we had the best time. How many times to you get to feed a giraffe. The park prides themselves on trying to maintain a natural landscape. They do however name many of the animals.










WIldlife Park Pictures

The day after Thanksgiving we drove down to Cottonwood to go to the Wildlife Park. IT'S AWESOME! The weather was perfect and it turns out that this is the time of the year for baby animals. We saw tons, and the baby zebra was the biggest hit. Daddy took tons of pictures and hopefully some capture the pure excitement of the day. You can get so close to the animals in their natural habitat. We also took a safari tour through the habitat. Margaret fed a giraffe when it stuck its head into our safari vehicle. The lions were roaring, the hyenas pacing and just tons of fun. She called them hyeedas. Videos to come.

Giraffe in vehicle!

Petting a Tegua.
Waiting for the tram. Also a huge hit!

Pausing for snack, not 10 feet from a huge tiger sleeping in the sun.

Catch all stuff from the Phone

Hiking up on the mountain in the sleet and snow. You can see little missy is having a great time.

Teacher Margaret giving her biggest smile.

Getting coffee with mommy at Late for the Train. This is Margaret's "smile".


Breakfast with Margaret



Margaret is super into tumbling and in fact practices at home. She loves bunnies so much. Many times she stands off to the side observing and then comes home talks about Ms. Casey the teacher and does the new movement.

First "Big Girl" Snow


First time in the snow as a big girl. We were dressed for the weather.
We cleared some of the snow and Miss M put on her new favorite boots and tights to collect snow to bring inside to "investigate".
Another snowy day, another day in tights and the new boots.
Taking Bodhi on a hike. Her favorite thing to do is throw rocks into the big puddles where the snow is melting.
Someone was just caught eating the snow.

Presnow swinging!



Margaret's first touching the snow experience. She was really excited!



Just cute walking around in the snow pants.

Days leading up to Halloween

We have been quite busy as a family with all the fun fall activities. The leaves have been beautiful and the weather awesome. Warm days and cool nights with snow on the mountain. This picture is from the fall festival at Warner's, a local flower landscaping shop. There was tons of great activities for little kids including ponies and a huge rabbit to pet.


Organizing our pumpkins.

The first of many different costumes.
Not a costume, but helping daddy with cleaning his bike. Outfit: pink cowgirl boots, big girl underpants and her Hollywood sunglasses.
At a friend's Halloween party. Looking for hidden pumpkins.

Pumpkin carving with Daddy.

Trick or Treating with Mommy and Daddy. She got the hang of it really quick and decided that Dum dum lollypops are her favorite.
