We went to Brazos Bend State Park (know by my kids as the Alligator park) for a hike with Brayden's cubscout den. We had a great time going on the hike with everyone, we did the smaller paved path that doesn't have as many alligators. We saw 2 alligators, some turtles, looks of ducks, a frog, and some snake like thing with legs that I don't ever want to see again! After the hike we went into the Nature Center out there where you can pet a baby alligator and if they are out a snake. They had out a rat snake on Sat and Kenzie was so funny. She just stayed right by the snake petting it and then moving onto the alligator and then right back to the snake. We had a really great time after most everyone left Brayden's two good friends from the pack and their families all stayed and we had a picnic lunch together. The kids pretty much just ran around playing but all in all it was a really great Sat. We didn't get to go into the Observatory since it was still too early, but it turned out to be a good things since we found out on Tue that Brock's field is out there next week:) If you live around us and haven't gone out to the park yet you really should! The bigger 40 acre lake trail right in the front normally has TONS of alligators on it, but there are lots of trails out there that are lots of fun. 
Man I hate snakes, spiders, and being outside in general.
