Nebraska Wild Life Safari.....

Saturday April 5th:
This Saturday for our conference weekend we decided that in between conference sessions we would drive down to the Safari park in between Omaha & Lincoln. I packed us a lunch & some snacks & we were on our way. As soon as we got there I handed the girls there PB&J sandwiches & unbuckled them & we were off.


Our 1st animals were the elk. They were so cool!! Kelsey & Linds kept trying to do an elk bugle! I think they watch the animal planet with their dad too much!!
Check out how close they are to our window!!



Next on our ride were the white tail deer.
Then you drive through the wet lands which had ducks, geese, frogs & turtles. We think there was a beaver or two but we never saw them but there was a beaver home farther down the road.
Sadie road on my lap because we were driving so slow she was getting crazy in her car seat. Check out the buffalo. They were so close & the girls were freaking out!! They all LOVE animals so much.


After the buffalo we got out of the car & went on a hike to wolf canyon & the black bears. Daddy is lifting Kelsey up so she can see.

Here's the Bear!!
See the black dot by the tree, above Kelsey's head? That is the bear & how close we were to it.

Daddy lifting Linds so she could see the bear.

Checking out the Wolves in Wolf canyon.




Look at how close the wolves were when we walked farther up the trail.
There is another wolf in the corner by Daddies head.
Kelsey took this picture of Dad & mom.
Walking back down the trail.
Sadie running FREE out of the stroller. She is a complete NUT!!!
TAG!!!!!


Daddy & his girls!!! (Sadie looks like poor Linds may be hanging on a bit too tight!!)

We had so much fun together as a family on our little adventure. We love spending time together out doors. Heavenly Father has blessed us so much this year & we are so grateful. Plus we live in such a beautiful place & have such gorgeous girls!!
