Gatorland!

For about the last two years, I have been wanting to go to Gatorland. The girls love alligators! Mike kept telling me that it wasn't worth the money so we've been putting it off until we found a coupon or discount. On Friday we found out that Gatorland was having a Teacher Appreciation deal and a Florida resident discount so what would have cost $80 to get in actually cost $20! Yay! So as soon as we got out of church to Gatorland we went!


We saw the Gator Jumparoo show, checked out the White Alligators, fed the flamingos, and Savannah attempted to fit inside the mouth the this gator! She wasn't the least bit hesitant!



Poor Owen has had a long week of going places, so he took the chance to catch a nap in the stroller!
Next we checked out the snakes, the aviary, and the petting zoo. The girls fed the goats and Savannah made friends with this chicken that was running loose in the yard. She cornered him and attempted to cart him off on her hip! We nearly had a complete meltdown when I told her she couldn't pick him up!



We took a swamp walk and then checked out the alligator wrestling show!
And just before we left, we let the girls loose in their splash park and playground. Kate accidentally left her bathing suit in the car so she got wet in her Sunday best!


It was a nice day! Even Owen needed a little cooling off before we left!
At the end of the day we were all pretty much exhausted! I secretly think we're all looking forward to the end of Spring Break so we can all go back to our normal routines! But it was a nice time hanging out as a family!
