Fossil Rim

Nana and Papaw were in town visiting, and we didn't have anything to do.  We decided to make a visit to Fossil Rim in Glen Rose.  It was a great day to see lots and lots of deer. 

The giraffe were resting today and not interested in eating, but they were still beautiful.

This deer was coming on in the truck for a snack.  The kiddos thought this was hilarious, but the adults felt a little uneasy.  OK, time to roll up those windows.

Father's Day at Fossil Rim

We spent the day in Glen Rose to celebrate Father's Day, and it was so much fun.  We drove down about mid morning and had lunch at a local bar-b-que restaurant.  The boys were intrigued by the rustic decor and the picnic table set up.  We then headed to Fossil Rim about 3 miles away. 

We all were amazed at our few hours driving through Fossil Rim.  It is about 1400 acres of wildlife refuge just a few miles southwest of Ft. Worth.  There are several different species to see and learn about.  We drove the meandering road through while we fed the amazing animals, all the while reading our brochure to learn more about them.  By the end of the trip, animals were eating out of our hands and even a giraffe was fed through the sunroof. 

Everyone LOVED today!  Even Miss Ridley who missed all the awesome animals while she napped in the floorboard of the truck.  Happy Father's Day to the best dad ever.  John Chris, we love you so much and appreciate the wonderful life with you.
