The thing we love most about living in Pensacola is all the great festivals and events. Every Thursday evening we go a great park on the bay for music and the sunset. This weekend was the Pensacola Craw fish Festival so we headed there on Saturday. Liam got to hold his first craw fish (alive) and participate in a craw fish race. Our #3 was not the winner but it was pretty funny to watch!
Have you ever had the chance to ride on an African Pygmy Elephant? Well the LeCroy's did and we didn't pass it up! The Zoo of Northwest Florida was hosting two amazing Pygmy Elephants who were in town for the local production of Aida (I think). On Sunday we headed to the zoo bright and early and waited patiently. Mike, Liam and I climbed on Congo, a 31yr old female, and took our short but wonderful ride. The Owner/Trainer who was leading Congo and was super nice and answered our questions.
I am so very proud of Liam for not being scared at all and for being almost as excited as mommy! One of Mike and I parenting goals is to make sure Liam experiences life to the fullest. I think we are doing a pretty good job so far!
To finish out the weekend Liam is taking his first ride in Mike's Jeep with the top off. Surprised? For some reason I never thought it was a good idea to have a fair skinned, wee tot in the back of a jacked up jeep with no top! Call me crazy! Mike needed to run some errands and Liam requested they take the jeep with no top! I guess now that he is 3 he is big enough. Hope they have fun and Liam doesn't get sunburned!
