arbor day

Today we went with some friends to celebrate Arbor Day in The Woodlands. They gave away 35,000 tree seedlings in 12 different varieties. We didn't take one as we don't have anywhere to plant another tree. They also had a petting zoo. I was a little worried that Blake would get knocked over but he stood his ground.

Andrew REALLY wanted to feed the animals but his poor mommy didn't have a quarter on her!!

They also had hay rides, pony rides, clowns, rock climbing walls and face painting.

The boys didn't do any of that though. They ONLY wanted to bounce in the inflatable bounce houses! They had about 12 to choose from and I think we hit them all!

Even the grass was nice. We stayed about 2 hours as it started getting a little crowed. The boys did NOT want to leave! They were having too much fun. Blake left kicking and screaming!!!

What a fun day! I can't believe they were giving away free trees and you didn't take one. Didn't Matt major in Forestry at Tech?
