Fourth of July Part 2

While we were gone, we went to Tigers for Tomorrow but they don't allow you to take pictures. It was pretty nice & the animals were beautiful! They have an area with goats that you can pet & feed, which Joshua really liked. Then they have enclosures with tigers, lions, leopards, bears, etc. We were only there for about an hour...mostly because Joshua wanted to be carried rather than walk. It was too rocky & hilly for our stroller, and he only wanted mommy to carry him. Unfortunately mommy can only carry 41 pounds for so long! But he did enjoy seeing the animals. We will definitely go back when he is older. We definitely recommend going if you are in the area. If you go...make sure to wear tennis shoes! I wore flip flops & survived but there were parts that were steep & rocky, and your feet get dirty!

John showing Joshua a sparkler. John kept saying he wanted to get sparklers for Joshua since we weren't going to see any fireworks. I thought that would be fun. When he went into the fireworks superstore, the last thing I said to him as he got out of the car was, "Just get sparklers...don't get anything else." Of course, he came out with a 10-pk of fountains! I didn't even know they sold fireworks that don't shoot up in the air. So, John got to put on a small, quiet fireworks show at the cabin.

This was one of the bigger "fountain" fireworks that John set off.
