Like I said yesterday, all of the animals were eating, and were very active. However, Katherine and the boys were so excited to see the jaguar. She was up and VERY active. Remember these were taken through glass, so there is a bit of a blur.

The jaguar’s cage was so cool because we could look her in the eye….she walked right up next to the glass…this picture perfectly shows how close the kids could get to her…pretty amazing!

Right before this shot, Katherine and I were talking about how we always see the cats lying down. We had never seen one so active. She came and laid down right beside Tanner and Katherine. It was really cool. This was the only time we saw her sit down. The rest of the time, she was pacing…


The faces of Tanner…I have loved taking pictures of this little guy! He makes the most hilarious faces! I had to put both of these because I love how his face changes from one second to the next!! He was watching the jaguar, and I would love to know what he was thinking!



The last picture of the day! I am so very sad that I did not get a good picture of the boys with Uncle Jim and Katherine! I was so very thankful that they went with us! It was very crowded, and it was such a blessing to have them there to watch out for the boys with me! Thank you Uncle Jim and KT…I absolutely adore both of you!! Besides having your help, it was too much fun to hang out with you! I love you!

These are the boy’s baby jaguars that they bought at the aquarium. Look how sweet Tanner looks….oh my goodness, he is such a ham!

For those of you that don’t know, I am a huge nature girl. I always feel closer to God when I am in nature, and I always have. That being said, it is amazing to see God’s handiwork on the animals. They are amesome!!! The perfect spots of a jaguar, the pearly pink of a flamingo, the dance of a penguin, the design of all the different fish, the jellyfish that glow….and on and on and on…..He continuously blesses me with chances to see His amazing design! Plus I was able to share all of that majesty and beauty with my precious nephews, my uncle and my cousin. ….nothing short of AWESOME! I highly recommend the Dallas World Aquarium. It was crowded, but it was so worth it! We had a blast!
enjoy!
