Spring Break in Toledo!

We found an awesome Groupon for a Wildlife Safari in Port Clinton - on the way to Toledo, so we stopped in to feed the animals!  Way fun!  Sadly, none of the outside areas were open until May, so we will just have to go back!
 The llamas were a bit intimidating...but the bison were downright scary!  They drooled all over our car!!!
 We bought the pellets and carrots to feed the animals and everyone wished we had more food - the animals loved when Mitchell would hold the cup because they could just grip it and pull it from his hands and get all the food!
 Hello friend!!!
 The beautiful longhorns...Andy was worried about them scratching the paint on the car, but we made sure to save them some food our second time around the park.  These babies are so incredibly gentle!
 This was an interesting animal - I think it was a Scottish Yak.
 We spent our first morning with the Smiths!  Love them!!!  They were our friends in Canton before they moved away!  They have 4 boys that my kiddos just adore.  #2 was in Ben's class in 2nd grade.  #3 played on Ben's baseball team for 3 years.  #4 was in preschool with Emily.  Andy and the Dad did Cubs together with #2 and Ben.  Annie just jumps in and plays with whoever is available and Mitchell is babied by them all and completely spoiled by Mrs. Smith.
 It was time to go and run to meet the Castles at Imagination Station, but we couldn't find BEN!!!  He was off a few streets over at the creek with all the boys.  Can't even tell you how much he loves being surrounded by guys in his world of girls that he has always lived in!!!
 Mitchell and Annie with my sweetest Miles (he might marry me when he grows up!) at the Children's Museum!
