Spring Break

John, Jaden and I headed to Oklahoma to visit Jaden's Grand-Parents, Great Grand-Parents and our old friends for Spring Break.  We stopped at Arbuckle Wilderness along the way so Jaden could see some animals up close.  They have a 6 1/2 mile drive thru where you can feed the animals that come right up to your car.  Jaden thought that was pretty cool!  He tried to throw the food out the window but since it didn't go very far, the animals got REALLY close to the car.  Too close in some cases!  =]  Once we got to OKLA we visited with family, Jaden got to play with his cousins at the waterpark inside the hotel where they were staying and we also visited the Aquarium.  We were supposed to go to the zoo but the weather was just too cold and windy.  Here are some pics from the trip.

When I saw this guy I urged John to roll up the windows!

He was huge and stuck his head right into the cars!

Also rolled up the window on the ostrich...they're just plain weird!

This is me feeding the giraffe from the back seat.  I didn't mind being this close...he had such a sweet face!  I sat in the back with Jaden....just to make sure the animals didn't get too close and try to bite or spit on him.  =D

These guys are related to Llamas but I can't remember what they were called.  

Cute though!

This is inside the Radisson Hotel where Jaden's cousins stayed.  

Very cool waterpark type of thing for the kids.  Indoors and heated.

This eel looked like a angry, crusty old man.

Anything that looks like a snake just creeps me out!

The baby jelly fish.

The Lion Fish - he was pretty cool!

Inside the shark exhibit.

It was a tunnel and the sharks went right over you.

I got a little disoriented and queasy...which isn't like me!

Pretty neat though!

Big Hug!

We had a great time visiting our family and friends and can't wait to see everyone again at the holidays!
