P.N.E

On Saturday we had a family day and went to the P.N.E. What a treat...Gerard could drive and I could take a nap and attend to the kids. It has felt like I have driven Hy.1 a lot this summer.

Danielle loves animals. When we walked into the animal area she would have jumped out of her stroller if it wasn't for the fact that she was buckled in. All of the kids love animals, but she tops it off.

She would have climbed right over the fence if I had let her. Here she is standing already lower than when I "caught" her. These animals were "called" cows, but I grew up on a cow farm around lots of cows and besides the fact that they don't have black spots (yes, I know there are many different kinds of cows) these cows were HUDGE, the biggest cows I have ever seen. They were from Alder Acers so some might of seen them there, I had never been so I was amazed at how BIG they were. One would have filled two freezers with meat.

There is so much to see, way too much to do in just one day. It is a great place to go because once you get in to see a show it's sit-down time and the kids all have a place and can't get lost. Very relaxing, (I even had a nap during the dog show, I am pregnant, and I can sleep ANYWHERE) But after all the shows the kids just had to do something not sit down. The can display was the perfect thing. They all helped out and Daddy got right in there too.

Posing for a picture when I thought they were done... but they kept on going... and going. What a good family project.

now it wasn't this...

or this, but hey, we had a lot of fun!!
