Animal BDs

On Valentine's Day, we went to Allie's (our neighbor's) birthday party. She had it at a place called The Tye-Dyed Iguana in O'Fallon. There was a demonstration with several animals (which we missed 2/3 of due to Daniel desperately needing a nap!) and after each demonstration, the kids were able to hold the animals if they so desired. Now, I figured William would be hesitant to hold some of the animals:

What I DIDN'T count on was Daniel being brave! The first animal we saw was this little iguana and I had to hold him first:

After I had a turn, Daniel was very eager to take a turn himself:

And, THEN they brought out the albino python. Daniel had to be restrained to wait his turn with this one!!

And, then after all the excitement, a pic of the boys with the birthday girl while she was opening their present:
