Another Full Day
After a breakfast of biscuits, bacon and scrambled eggs a group left for the water park. Eden and Elisabet decided not to go and stayed here at the house to play in the pool and hot tub. Zeke and River were too short to go on the water slides so they went to a dig park.
They had a lot of fun digging and finding fun things that had been buried in the dig park. Below are videos of Zion and Iris going off the high dive at the water park.
When they got back they had more fun in the hot tub and pool but soon came in to play with slime.
Israel came in with a new set of shades he gave to Zeke so those 2 cousins could be cool together.
They were only $3.00 each so we may just need to go back to Walmart tomorrow and pick some up for the 5 girls too. For our dinner tonight we had the left over steak sliced into strips then sauteed in bacon grease for fajitas. We also served taco meat, sauteed peppers and onions, fresh tomatoes, shredded lettuce, queso, rice, shredded cheese and chips. Everyone was really hungry after spending the day in the water. David and Stephanie moved out of Amy house this morning and when cleaning it they saw a panther in Amy's back yard. Stephanie and Israel both saw it. She thought it was a bobcat not realizing that bobcats don't have long tails. I showed her pictures of the 3 wild cats that live in Florida and as soon as she saw the picture of the panther she exclaimed, "that is what we saw." It wasn't as large as an adult but for sure much bigger than a bobcat. They also saw what Israel called, a BIG Lizard. I think that must have been her resident Iguana. After dinner Mark and I went for a walk to see some of the Christmas lights.
Mike sent the video below. He got home from Gulf Shores last night and went out this morning to put more bales in and check on the herd.
When we got back from the walk Sarah had all the kids helping her make a big bowl of puppy chow. They even let me help lick the bowl.
