Youth Outdoor Expo

We took the kids to a youth outdoor expo today and oh my GOSH....they had a blast!!!  This was completely free for kids, $5 for adults and we were there four hours!!  We walked through the woods on trails to vendors tables set up with tons of activities and things for kids to do and learn about.  Our kids walked the whole way...Everyone was exhausted but on cloud nine from all the things they got to do. It was a GREAT day!
I am just going to let the pictures explain the activities.  Get ready there are LOTS!!
A really really bumpy tractor ride into the woods

1st stop was a "ride" in an airplane with Isaac and Addy as pilots

Next they made bird feeders and the lady was so nice to open a brand new bag of seed without peanuts for Addy.

Holding baby pheasants

shooting a paint gun

shooting a sling shoot, he actually hit the target on his last round!

practicing his fishing casting skills

walking through the woods

Addy loved "riding" on all the cars

Addy and four wheeler

Isaac LOVED this station

shooting the bb gun.  He hit the target three times and got to keep his paper.

trout fishing

boat racing

touching a turtle.  This was a teacher from WBL who brought out all the animals from his classroom.

waiting his turn for a "boat" ride

sorry I forgot to rotate.

petting the alligator



This was Addy's favorite.  She fed all the animals.


Look carefully at her face

she wanted to pet the horsey so bad but then look at her face

The last stop was the balloon tent for swords.

Isaac showing off his power ranger/star war moves
Pretty sure I missed a couple of things...but you get the idea.  TONS of outdoor fun and we just made it home before the afternoon storm started.  Isaac asked about 10 times if we could go back tomorrow.
