Day of Rest.

I like for Sunday to be a day of rest.
With four active kids, sometimes that is just not possible - but today it was.  Thank goodness.

Yesterday we drove up to Reptiland in Allenwood, PA.  It is as creepy-crawly as the name suggests, but it was pretty cool.  Many exhibits were closed for the winter.  We did get to hang out with one of the zookeepers for about an hour and a half - so the fact that some exhibits weren't accessible was more than made up for.  We got to pet a baby alligator, hang out with a boa constrictor, see a baby saltwater croc feeding, meet Rocky and Adrian the American Alligators and chill with a parasaurolophus. 
The part that we didn't tell the kids was that we met up with Nina and Pops there.  Definitely a nice surprise for everyone.  :)

 Pre-gaming with Nina in the back of the Escape.  They found a nice little thrift bakery.  Bottles of water for ten cents?!?!  THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

 Petting the baby alligator. 

 Watching the saltwater croc feeding.  Nate kept telling him when he missed a piece of earthworm.  I think if the croc had not have eaten it, Nate would have. 

 Sam and his buddy the Parasaurolophus.  They got along very well. 

And SUPER BEN-BEN, who wants nothing more to be active and keep up with his siblings.  

 And then the ultimate Nater-Tot Photo Bomb...
It's pretty self explanatory...Never a dull moment with that boy around. 

Should be a decently eventful week coming up...the kids are off from school a majority of days and  I would like to get in 21 miles running.  Put that will all the regular stuff we need to do to keep this establishment running and it will make for some early bedtimes. 
I hope.
