Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day a little late! 
Mark really enjoyed his time with the girls this year.  We started out by going out to breakfast...chocolate chip pancakes complete with whipped cream for the girls, of course!
Then we headed off on our last trip to Flamingo Gardens. They were having a special reptile and amphibian show which I knew Bianca would love.  When we arrived she was a little hesitant about the front row seats that Mark choose for us. But, once things got started she became more comfortable and was sure to pet all of the animals on display (except the scorpion).  Ellia, our little princess, was also loving being up close and personal with all of the creatures there.  Maybe she has a little tomboy in her yet!

Petting the blue-tongued skink!

I can't remember what type of snake this was, possibly a boa constrictor, but, it was large.

Bianca's favorite - the salamander.  She was very excited to learn that it was an amphibian.  She had thought it was a reptile.

This was Bianca's other favorite  - the black throated monitor.

Cautious with the scorpion.
Neither of the girls have shown any interest in face painting but, they do like to have their arm painted.  Ellia chose a heart with wings.


Bianca chose a blue shark!

Happy Father's Day!
