How We Spent Our Summer Vacation: Safari Adventure

and even more catching up!  :)

So there is the neatest drive through Safari in the Arbuckle Mountains in Southern Oklahoma... Lions, Tigers and Bears... oh my!  I've wanted to go for years and thought it would be a fun road trip when Carrie was here visiting... so we hooked up with friends and  had the best time!!  

We drove through with the van doors open and the animals came up to the car (and tried to get in!) and we got to pet and feed them... it was very up close and personal!!

Highlights:

Killer ostriches that climbed in to the car and wouldn’t take NO for an answer!! 

Cute donkey’s… unfortunately the only way to get rid of them was to roll up the windows and drive away.  Fast.

Zebras… so sweet and friendly!

Invasion of the camels who tried to climb in to the car and took off with two cups of pellets!

Awesome giraffes… oh how we loved the giraffes!

Open van doors… the best way to enjoy the animals!

Baby boy getting hold of the food cup and eating animal pellets before anybody caught him… ewww gross!

Finishing off the day with a walk through the kids zoo and bumper boats

A wonderful day spent day with friends!

Safari fun for everyone!

And a perk to being so behind on blogging is that the Shutterfly book is already made!
