SNAKES!!!!!

Here are pics of the kids from when we went to see the snake guys last week! The kids all loved holding the snakes...yuck, yuck and yuck!!! Even little Kyler who I had no idea was so fearless held them. They held a bunch of a smaller ones and then I only braved walking through the crowd for pictures at the end when most of the snakes were put away! They saved the biggest 2 for last and I stood way back and used my zoom feature to get these pics!
waiting to hold the Python and the Boa Constrictor
Kyler holding the python...this snake was rescued on the side of the road. Someone decided they didn't want it for a pet anymore. The snakes body was 35 degrees when it was found, which is bad...they call him Lucky, cuz he was lucky to have survived. They eventually nursed it back to health...but it went for 13 monthes without eating while it was sick!
Austin...he even held the head and felt its tongue! ewwwh
Tyson...he was in heaven!
Kailee....she didn't mind holding them, the face is for the camera
Kailee hold the boa...the kid wasn't really letting go and letting the kids hold it so this was the best pic I could get. It was 20 pounds. So it was funny to watch some of the kids sink down a little when it was put on their shoulders.Ty wanted so badly to hold it alone, but the guys said no!
AustinKyler said No Thank You to the boa...but he held all the other ones!Austin wanted a picture that said...'Kyler I can't believe you didn't hold the snake' and Kyler played along!

2 chatted at me:

YEA for snakes. Your kids and mine should get together with the reptile guy and have fun! You and I could leave them there in heaven and go out for hot chocolate and cake! lol

Its so great to see the kids they are all growing up so fast. I always get nervous when I see a HUGE snake around some kids neck.. I guess just as long as they dont talk you into letting them get one your okay!!
