411 The Walters Bunch

What you can't see is a lemur in cage to the top right that almost pooped on us! We have be busy with school and have completed 25% of our year so far. That means 75% left until next summer! We are needing a little break so went to the home school day at Sharkarosa. It is a lot of fun. it is similar to a zoo, but has informational talks scheduled throughout the day about all the animals they keep; most of which have been rescued. It is geared towards school age children. They also have a "train" that takes you through the different pastures where you get up close to several varieties of exotic animals. The weather was beautiful, but a little warm at 86. We had a great time and enjoyed the baby kangaroos and lemurs; I could have done without the close up of the cobra though. Hubby making our house look like a bomb went off. 3 Generations of my boys. Our train ride....no this was NOT one of the exotic animals! This was though. Mama and baby

Of the six people in our immediate family, 3 of us have a birthday with in 10 days of each other. This means that the oldest daughter and youngest son always have a combined party and I spend my birthday planning what they will we do for their birthday. We have so many treats that week that I literally can't even think of butter or sugar with out feeling sick. This year my daughter wanted a movie star theme and my son lego star wars. I call it Hollywood Legos. I made some light sabers from pool noodles, turned the front door into a Lego, and my daughter made a red carpet star walk. We took the kids to the trampoline park down the street, but were disappointed in it. They had fun, but the one we went to for their cousins birthday the month before in Keller was a lot more fun.  My kids had fun though so that was all that mattered. T in front of my Lego door and with the light saber I made AJ with her clapboard brownie cake she made. Her walk of fame.....had the guests na
