Wild Water West

While we were in South Dakota we went to Wild Water West with Michelle..It was so much fun….we all had a blast!!!  We thought we were going to get rained out but later the sun decided to come back out for awhile..These pictures were all taken with my waterproof point and shoot which isn't the best thing but it does a pretty good job..there are some that are dark but at times it was pretty dark out.

Avery loved this little whale water slide…but she would make this face EVERYTIME she went down…it was so cute and funny. She would squint up her eyes and her whole face..and right away when she was done she was signing more and walking over to climb right back up and do it all over again...

Avery and Kamalee

While we were in South Dakota I got to see Kamalee..(many of you know her but for those of you that don’t..she is Jared’s cousins little girl)  She is such a cutie!!..Barb brought her over to Joyce’s so Avery and Kamalee could play for a little bit:)) While Amy tried to take a nap bc she was sick in bed..Sorry we didn't get to see you Amy…next time:))    BTW it was extremely hard to get there picture together..they were both on the move!!!!

But it didn't last very long…can you tell she isn't really fond of the snake..she ended up throwing that thing pretty fast after I snapped this picture!!!

Avery and Kamalee!!!  (Destiny noticed right away that they look alike..she says “Mom, ah she is so cute and she looks like Avery…So does that mean she has down syndrome too??”  Yes..  Oh ok..and off she went)

A Day at the Zoo

Here are a few ALOT of pictures from our trip to the zoo in South Dakota!!!  My friend Danelle drove up for the day to spend some time with us and we all had such a great day and it was fun to spend some time with her and her kiddos!! 
Avery loved this bird..she also loved to torment it through the glass..She would walk back and forth and the bird would follow her and she just giggled..hehe!!!  and She even liked to pet it..This was her kind of petting..Petting the glass!!:)

Ahh the penguins..we got to see them feed the penguins and then they brought one outside there cage so all the kids could pet one..and then the penguin pooped on the keeper..quite disgusting and made me glad that  I didn't have that job…lol!!!

OK Mom I touched it so you can get a picture..are you happy??  Yeap thanks Brielle!!!:)) She wasn't that interested in the penguin…can you tell??? lol!!!

This monkey was sleeping while he rested his mouth on his cage..too funny!!  A white tiger that was actually moving around..Usually in the zoos down here every time we go its so HOT that no animal is moving so its pretty much boring and a waste of time!!!

Usually every time we have gone to the zoo I have never seen the bears move in my life…even as a kid so I was all excited to actually see them move and play around..
