Crocodile DunDette!

Ok so maybe not crocodiles but alligators for sure! After our fun-filled egg hunt mom, dad and I went to the cypress gardens with our friends. It was SOOO much fun! Mom was silly and forgot the camera but luckily our friends had theirs and snaped a few shots of us. The gardens had a BEAUTIFUL swamp that we were able to take a boat ride through. It is such a beautiful place that people actually get married there! Anyway, in the swamp we got to see a few alligators. They were so cool! My favorite was this guy. His name is tripod because he only has 3 legs. oops! must have gotten into a fight.





Here we are being silly. And look, I got to ride a turtle!


Mom's favorite part was the butterfly garden. It's a little building with butterfly plants and tons of butterflies flying around. They come right up to you! Every morning mom and I say hi to the butterflies that hang from my ceiling in my room so i've learned sort of what the word butterfly means. So the butterfly gardens were extra special because I was able to see REAL butterflies up close and personal. I LOVED it!!!!!! Mom would say "butterfly" and I would look around at all of the beautiful butterflies flying around me. It was the neatest experience to put it all together in my little head! Mom LOVED it!




Our last favorit thing was this funny HUGE tortise - Pedro! Isn't he cute! We all thought it was so funny that all the caretakers had to do to keep him pinned up was set up a few posts. He was so big he just couldnt squeeze through them and it was funny to see him try!
