Como

Find the "kitty cat"
Ben wanted a picture with the giraffes smelling butts- so Ben

I hate snakes so bad, so this was a big deal for me to sit by one in glass- yuck
While visiting the animals at Como we walked through the flower garden to try to get out of the cabin fever and smell fresh flowers. Then we had to come to reality and walk outside to see the Polar Bears. We are hoping for spring to get here real soon.

Wilderness Fun

Snow shoeing in the wilderness. Have to say it is not for me.

What a beautiful view from Wolf Ridge Environment Learning Center. The area was just filled with beauty on top of a hill. The first day was great but when we got up the next day we were in for a BIG blizzard so we had to pack up early and head home. Sad but what we did was something we will never forget. Learned about nature, snow shoed, did a rope course (crazy) but fun! Rock climbed, dug through owl pellets,nature hike through the woods in the dark- just so many things. Even though there was lack of sleep it was a good few days.

Allison made it look really easy! Must be youth on her side.

Allison


Allison had a skate competition where she did three performance. She did her first solo too! She did so great and looked beautiful! She was a little upset on her results but next time we know what to do. Great Job Allison!

Boys

The boys going out to play. Tyler had to have goggles just like his brother, yes swim goggles! So glad they get along, well sometimes!
