The Great Outdoors


Today we traveled a short distance south to Brazos Bend State Park. The main thing they are known for is their alligator habitat, so we were hoping to be able to see some real gators!


Brady enjoyed being out in the wide open! He is our little outdoors man.


Luke liked throwing rocks as far as he could and looking for tigers. Sadly, we did not see any tigers at all...


But, we did see two alligators. You may notice this one on the bank to the right of the picture sun bathing.




The swamp along one of the trails we went on. Perfect place for the gators!


Towards the middle of this picture you see a duck family which was so cool. These ducks were so beautiful they were black and orange.


Mom & Brady on our bike.

Luke rode behind daddy's bike in the bike trailer. This picture was taken right before we got on our first trail to ride.


I like the tree in the picture above. The park was full of huge trees- as you would have guessed.


Another swamp photo.
What a fun day spending some family time learning about where the alligators and other cool animals live. We will definitely be back!
