Nature Fest!

One of the best things about Houston is there's always something to do!  We found out about Nature Fest in one of the neighborhoods in Cypress and decided to take the boys out there for some good (free!) fun.  They had duck races, pony rides, baby camel rides, armadillo races, train rides and various food and nature-inspired vendors.  It was our first 'outing' with both boys and a good reason to test out our new double stroller.  Henry slept the entire time and Charlie had a ball!

The first thing we did was go straight to the pony rides! 

Charlie's pony!  I hope he wakes up when it's his turn to ride!

Look at me Mama!



Bye bye horse!
The line for the baby camel rides were loooooooooong so we skipped that one.  Charlie did enjoy watching them though!
How cool is this?
Then we went over to the petting zoo.  Charlie LOVED this... He had no fear whatsoever. 



Then we went to check out my favorite, the armadillos!  They were supposed to be armadillo races but we didn't see those.  They let the kids put on gloves and pet them!  I think they're adorable! 

Gloves on and ready to go!


Trey caught one!

This was the ONE animal Charlie didn't want to pet.  He kept his distance!
The owners of the armadillos brought this scary bird/vulture thing.  I swear to you he was eying my Henry in the stroller right here.  Not cool.
As a treat we got the first snowcone of the season!  Of course, HUGE hit.

We are blessed to be together and have fun things to do as a family!
