Labor Day Weekend

So Jared and I decided this family needed a little out of the house fun. We decided to take some extra time off for Labor Day weekend and play. On Saturday we went to Global Wildlife Center. In case anyone isn't familiar, it's an enormous wildlife park, where you pay (a lot) to feed their animals. Make sense, right? RIGHT? Anyway, they take visitors out on big trains and and you can feed the animals by hand or from buckets. Except the zebras. They bite, so they ask that you toss the feed to them.

So much fun! I think we were both a little worried about Grace trying to throw herself off the train. We had to keep a really tight grip on her, but she had a blast.




And throwing feed on the ground was fun too!

The next day we went to the Louisiana Children's Museum. Mommy was very disappointed. I went there quite a bit when I was little and it was not what I remembered. Jared pressed every button he could find and not one worked. It was all very sad. Fortunately Grace didn't care. However, she did not appreciate the pushy little children who felt like she was moving to slow. She let a couple of them have a very stern look. And her looks are scary!






Then we wrapped up the weekend with more swimming.
