What We’ve Been Up To: Animal Edition!

Before we left Provo, we made sure to visit some friends and places we knew we would miss. Dana’s coworker, Joey, has a great collection of lizards, snakes, and spiders that he lets us play with sometimes. IMG_7496 IMG_7497 IMG_7515 IMG_7503 A pink toe spider: so cute! IMG_7508 Blue-tongued skink: this one only has 3 legs!

We also stopped by the foot of the bell tower where there are some ducks.IMG_7571 We got rid of our bread, they got a snack. This duck is willing to go the extra mile…IMG_2314 And this is what happens when you give a duck a piece of bread…

When we got to Washington, Dana made sure to let the kids meet the new pets. Here is Megan with our stick-bug: IMG_7770 Can you find him?

At Beacon Rock, this bird let us walk on his dock, Wasn’t that nice of him? IMG_8344 And again with the fish ladder, this time with a size reference. IMG_8383They look tasty :-)

Here is a video of the fish ladder!


At the beach in Oregon we saw all kinds of pretty anemonesIMG_2617 and star fish.IMG_2620 Look at all of them! IMG_8593 IMG_8601 We made sure to get a picture with one of them: IMG_8576 Dana gave him a high-five. IMG_2626

Keep your eyes peeled for Dana’s posts on his bug catching trips!

I don't know what a skink is (well now I sort of do) but I am imagining Barbra Streisand singing "The Way We Were" as you say goodbye to him. He he! I hope you guys are getting settled in WA.

Haha. I especially like Dana giving the star fish a high-five.
