My birthday May, 23rd, 2013

For my birthday, my mom, my dad, and I went to Grafton IL. We first saw two replicas of the Nina and the Pinta. After that, we went horseback riding through Pere Marquette and it was beautiful! We ate at the Fin Inn, which is a restaurant that you can eat while watching fish swimming in a tank right next to you! The fish are from the Mississippi River. Last, my favorite part was to go see my ducks that I gave away! After more than a month they remembered me right away!

The ducks I gave away swimming on their pond. 

 Flapper, Goose, Sweetie, and Daisy.

 I like how Flapper has his tail up!

 Right when I got to the pond, the ducks came right out of the water! 

I think my mom scared them off because she was taking pictures of them.

 These are all the Mallard drakes that share the pond.

 Flapper, Sweetie, Goose, Daisy, and in the background of the photo is a  Mallard hen with three of her ducklings following her. 

The Mallard hen and her ducklings! They were so cute!

Trip To The Magic House!

Yesterday we were planning on going to the St. Louis Zoo, but it rained almost all day so my dad, mom, sister Courtney, my niece Kaylee, and I went to the Magic House in St. Louis instead.

 We caught fake fish with magnetic fishing pools, brought the fish to the end of the river and watched them go back to the pond.

 There was also a veterinarian office. Of course with pretend animals!

 Afterwards we went to Whole Foods. This is dad and Kaylee being silly.

This is a goat puppet that I liked, but it cost way too much! It was $33.99!!!

After that we went to Emo's Pizza. We found this little baby bird in the parking lot.

On our way home we drove through a storm.

We all had a lot of fun!!
