Fossil Rim....Labor day 2009

We had a fun Labor Day! We ended up going to Fossil Rim with our friends the Rousseau's and the Fitzpatrick's. The kids loved it! Can you say OSTRICH?? The Ostrich is always a highlight at Fossil Rim. They are one of the last things you see and they are so entertaining!! One interesting fact we read yesterday is that their brain is smaller than their eyeball. Isn't that a fun fact you would want everyone coming to see you to know!? :) This is the caravan....the Rousseau's and the Fitzpatrick's. Kelly on the look out.

This guy was wanting to be up close and personal with Bob!

Steve saw this guy crossing the road. It almost looked like a snake!

Camille and Grant loved hanging out of the car.

It was faces and laughs like this that made the day so fun. It was pretty pricey but was worth it!

GROSS! Steve loved the Elk. I told him he had to wash my car after all of the slobber that he allowed from these beasts! It was pretty funny. We passed a lot of purell and wet ones around.

Hello Bob! Grant Rousseau keeping a look out! ;)

Grant was so funny! He was in heaven with all of the animals.

Camille pretending to be a goat! Have her tell you about the picture she took of the chicken....it was fake but she didn't know it. You know you are raising TOWNIES when they do not know what a REAL chicken looks like! To her credit..it was pretty realistic looking.

Here is our darling Pierce. I love that boy. He could pass for one of my kids. I still can't talk Christine into giving him to me!!!

Camille sure enjoyed this guy.

She got a kick out of all of their signs.

Camille and McKenzie showing their WILD side!

Careful Cam!

Camille loved the Zebras.

Sweet Owen Christian Rousseau. He was a trooper and good as gold!

Grant was obsessed with holding Pierce. I am not so sure that Pierce felt the same way. ;)

We had lunch at a fun little place Bob had heard about in Grandbury
. They had fried pickles and the works!

Mom and Grant.

It was a really fun day. I am so thankful for good friends to share great times with. Thanks guys!
