While we were on our trip late May early June we did a lot of different things. I went zip lining for the first time with my nephew who graduated (Soooooo fun I would totally do it over and over again), went to different places I had never been before (like Branson), and got to go on other adventures including going though a Safari Park in Arkansas. It was quite fun and we got to see some animals we hadn’t before.
Ever seen one of these?
Here is one asleep could never get a good view of the face…
It was cool to drive though and see all the different animals. Like these…
Love the while buffalo!
And this cute little baby…
This was only part of our adventure here, there were just so many animals to see… More to come…

Its here fellow bloggers and followers… my 100th post. I have not posted for the last couple of days as I was waiting for the perfect thing to blog about to make it a great 100th post. I think I have it… my day at the wildlife park 🙂 So here we go on an adventure through the park… won’t you join me?
This poor tiger only had one eye, but seemed to do just fine. It’s amazing how humans and animals are alike in their ability to adapt.
And finally the slowest, but one who can win the race…
I hope you have enjoyed our little adventure into the wild. I know I did… Have a beautiful and wild week 😉
(Quiz for the day : Anyone know the move the title came from?)

When I was a little girl my mom, dad, and I would always take Sunday drives. We would go all over the state and sometime to other states if time permitted. Sometimes our Sunday drives would happen on Saturdays if we wanted to drive too far, as usually Sunday we went to church. These are some of my favorite memories from my childhood.
When I met my husband he also had the same experience as a child so we decided to incorporate these “Sunday drives” into our relationship. We felt it was important to have this time and to keep them as part of our family traditions. We really enjoy them and find it is really a time to connect, talk, and relax.
So today we took one of our drives after he got home from work. We drove into Maryland and I found a lot of photo opportunities. I thought I would share some.
First we went by this little church, I thought the stained glass windows and steeple were very neat.
On one of the back roads we had to put on our brakes rather quickly as a chicken almost ran out in front of us…
Then we found this little park we could walk the dogs along a stream.
Next we found some neat farms, barns, and fence lines.
Some cows were wondering what I doing... I think they thought I was a crazy lady taking pictures of their farm.
On the way home I saw some what looked like wooden crosses along side an old barn. I thought they were neat.
It was a nice day, despite the migraine I had, and I enjoyed the ride.
Do you have any family traditions you have carried over into your family now? Were you able to do any on those today?

I wanted to share something tonight I feel strongly about. We as humans benefit from being outdoors. It helps with mood, energy, spirit, and health. Kids especially need to be outdoors and play. It helps them with mood, energy, creativity, imagination play, social skills building, self-esteem building, and so much more.
I thought I would share with you one of my husbands and my favorite outdoor activities (as we have many). On our one year anniversary (many moons ago now it feels like) we decided to do an outdoors trip which included riding ATV’s through the mountains at an ATV park in Pennsylvania. We had a great time and always enjoy riding ATV’s.
This is me on an ATV in PA.
There were all sorts of trails to ride on from easy to super hard and we enjoyed most of the light to moderate trails (and a couple of the harder ones) as we felt since we don’t get to ride that often on trails like this it would be safest. It had been raining all day and we ended up covered from head to toe in mud (you may not be able to see it here, but we were). Even in the rain we had a blast and built memories that will last a long time.
This is my husband on the ATV.
This is another thing I love about the outdoors, the memories you can make. I hope you have outdoor plans for this weekend if your weather is nice. Even if it rains the puddles can be fun to jump in especially if you have little one… or even a pup or two 😉
Do you or you families have favorite outdoor activities? If so please share them with me 🙂
