A Little Bit Of This And That

While the grandchildren were visiting we took them to and animal safari park/petting zoo near by. I have got some lovely memories to share.

We bought a bucket of treats to feed the animals. There were some apples, carrots, potatoes, grapes, corn and lots more. The bucket had a list of what to feed each animal.

All the children still have their fingers intact. I must have had at least a dozen heart attacks when they kept putting their hands in the fences.

 

Can you believe people actually have to be told this!

They had feeding shoots for the animals that might bite.

 

 

 

I have lots more pictures but I am going to stop boring you. I just want to share one more. I don't want to forget our youngest grandchild. I am always trying to be fair and not leave one out. I know you do not mind just one more photo.

He sure is growing fast! We did not take him to the animal park though. He is just a mite to small for that.

 

We all had a great time and learned lots about all the animals. The grandchildren all want to do this again next year! Have you visited an animal park or zoo recently? What was your favorite animal? I think the turtle was my favorite. I hope you all enjoy your day. 

 

Meet Nuff, and No Nuff

Pooh Bear owns many stuffed animals and he loves them all but, he has not named any of his stuffed animals and has not shown preference over any one particular animal until a weekend trip to visit grandpa and grandmas.
One weekend while we were traveling with Pooh Bear he wanted to play a crane machine at one of the many rest areas we stopped at. Normally we let him pretend to play without putting in coins. This time I gave him some quarters to play with. He has never won anything from the machines before so he was surprised and amazed that the machine gave him something. Ever since he got the little green bear he has not left it out of his sight. This bear has become his most prized possession. My grandson gave his bear the name Nuff.

I mentioned in a previous post that Pooh Bear has motion sickness when we travel. This weekend we traveled again to visit grandpa and grandma. We were able to avoid the vomiting (by stopping every 30 minutes) except for one time. The one episode got precious Nuff covered in vomit. Pooh Bear was so upset we had to find a quick replacement at the next rest area. We let Pooh Bear pick out a stuffed animal to temporarily replace Nuff. We figured it would be hopeless as the boy has too many stuffed animals to count, and non of them has ever came close to competing with Nuff. We were wrong! The second he saw this little guy he shouted out No Nuff. Pooh Bear has not let No Nuff out of his sight. When Nuff was all nice and clean, Pooh Bear squealed with delight. He now takes Nuff and No Nuff everywhere he goes.
