Fossil Rim & Family

Sevyn LOVES her accessories! Hats, sunglasses, jewelry, shoes . . . you name it she loves to wear it!

We took a day trip to Fossil Rim and had a lot of fun. The ostrich was pretty agressive. He actually pecked on our windshield for about 45 seconds! Jim had to throw food out the side of the car to get him to move!


This giraffe was ENORMOUS. Probably 15-18 foot tall. His knees (do they have knees?) came up to the car window!

Here's the pesky Ostrich that wouldn't get out from in front of our car!

The mid-way point where we had a picnic lunch and looked out of Fossil Rim.

The zebra started off fun! HOWEVER, they became more and more agressive. They bit Jim's hand, and the steering wheel! I stopped feeding them, Jim kept on. And yes, Sevyn was sitting on the Arm rest of the car. We were going only 5-7 mph, so we figured it was ok!

Sevyn also took her turn driving the car. She definitely loved sitting in daddy's lap!

Family photo. See the sucker in Sevyn's hand, she didn't put it down the ENTIRE 3 hour tour!

Aunt Michelle came and stayed with us a few days in May. We had a great time visiting with her, and Sevyn loved playing with her as well.

We recently went to Beaumont to visit Jim's family. We had a wonderful weekend trip. Sevyn loves her grandparents.

We LOVE that drive thru zoo!! We have gone several times and the girls just asked the other day to go again. I love her hat and sunglasses, too cute :)

Fossil Rim looks like a blast. How far away is it? Very cute pictures. Isaac just got his first pair of sunglasses so I hope he likes them as much as Sevyn!

Fossil Rim is in Glen Rose. Definitely worth the trip! Sevyn was exhausted after watching all the animals, and feeding them. It is a bit pricier than the zoo, but you get to get VERY up close and personal with some exotic animals. It takes about 3 hours to go through, and at the half-way point there is a gift shop, food place, and picnic tables. We stopped at the subway BEFORE we got to Fossil Rim and bought sandwiches for a picnic lunch (much cheaper!)
