Maggie, and Our Oatland Island Outing with Alison and Crew!

One of the nights that Alison was here, the kids were eating Popsicles. Ian decided he didn't want his anymore but Maggie was happy to finish it off for him!!

We got up early Wednesday morning, packed a lunch and headed to one of our favorite spots, Oatland Island. The tortoise was out of his hole this time! Not for long though......he was heading right back into the hole when we walked up.

The whole crew looking at the tortoise.

The Bison!

Some of the kids all in the tree.

Randy and Ian!

I love this one!

The teens looking so thrilled. They did enjoy themselves they just have to look "cool" when the camera is pointing in their direction!

Feeding the fish at the pond. Ian actually lost his flip flop in the water and Aaron had to fish it out!

Alison and Noah

Walking the trails...

Time for lunch...I think Aaron and Jadziah were probably discussing their wedding plans!

Ian and Jadziah grabbing a drink of water together.

Sweet Momo!

The fox home!

A neat fox picture!!

At the end of the marsh walk, the kids stopped to investigate some snails!

A pair of cranes! Notice the egg!!

Last but not least, the alligators!! Look close!! Do you see the babies? There are two big ones up on the bank and the babies are in the water!

Another wonderful day on the island with friends!
