Weekend Fun - May 19 and 20, 2007

We had a nice weekend. It was very pleasant and we played outdoors most of the weekend. Sarah had a game Friday night and she had fun and played well. Her team won again. On Saturday and Sunday, we did not have any sports games, so we mostly played around the house.

The big news is that Sarah lost her first two teeth (bottom middle teeth) and somewhat surprisingly, I don't have any pix of the big event. I'll upload some soon though. They pretty much fell out as her adult teeth were coming in and pushing out the baby teeth. She lost one Saturday night and second on Sunday morning. She did well with the tooth fairy.
On Saturday, Nick had a short practice and then we all went to an exotic animal farm / petting zoo. One of the highlights was a 17 foot Burmese Python that weighed as much as me. Well, OK, almost as much as me. No, we did not pet that thing.


Nick is not the animal lover Sarah is, but then who is. Here Nick reluctantly feeds a small, but ornery goat.

Sarah does love animals. Here she found a baby goat that could not outrun her.

I coaxed Yvonne into kissing camel.


On the other hand, Nick wanted no part in Camel kissing. Even when the camel was cool with the idea.

I got a bit too close to the ostrich. He (or she) was a bit peckish.


Another view.


Sarah still wants a puppy and this place had two puppies, but they were already sold. I told Sarah she could ask the owner if they were for sale and she very politely asked him if the puppies "were available?" She was disappointed to learn they were already sold, but somewhat heartened to hear that the dog wearing her hat is pregnant and due in two weeks and we could put our name on the waiting list.

First, I cannot believe that Yvonne got talked into camel kissing. How many margaritas did she have?! Also, did you put your names on the puppy list?! (When are you moving to the farm?) Please tell Sarah congratulations on her lost teeth!
