Petting tigers, saving quails, and being Paleontologists.

Petting TigersWe got to go to the Davis county fair and do lots of fun stuff but this was just plain awesome. We got to go inside of a baby tigers cage and pet and lay by this baby tiger. Ours fell asleep because she had a bottle but it was still awesome!
Ryker's favorite animal has been a tiger for quite some time now so he was lovin' this tiger lovin'.

Okay, I realize I am a nerd but I have never got to pet a tiger before! I even got a sticker afterwards that said "I touched a tiger". It was awesome!

We visited the hen house and this is cute Violet with a turkey. She was to little to sit with the tigers. They said she would have to sit for a whole eight minutes straight. Yeah right I'd really like to see that.

Saving the Quail

We were at my mom's house the other day when her cat brought up this cute little quail in her mouth! Once Ryker saw that it wasn't just another decapitated mouse that kitty brought home he scooped up this little baby quail who was still very much alive.

We made it a little nest and I googled wildlife rehabilitation centers in Utah.

Lucky for us there was one on 12th street in Ogden.

My mom and stepdad turned there date night out into a rescue mission for this little baby Quail and dropped him off at the rehabilitation center in Ogden. Don't worry I made Ryker wash his hands multiple times after touching that adorable quail that tends to carry multiple diseases.

Being Paleontologists

We got to go to the Dinosaur park in Ogden. We have never been and it was pretty cool. This is Ryker with his best friend Bridger.

Here is Miss Violet being a paleontologist and finding dinosaur bones in the sand.

Funny kids.

I loved the parts where they had real dinosaur bones. It was awesome!

Thanks to some good buddies that invited us we got to see lots of cool stuff at the dino park!
