Trip To Tyler

Over this past summer, our famil took a week long trip to Tyler and styed in the time share. We had SOOOO much fun and the Tyler area has a lot more to offer than I could have imagined! On the resort, there is a putt-putt course.
We played this every day that we could.
The kids LOVE putt-putt!
Here's a butterfly on the course.


Cooper got wiped out!


Here are are at Tyler zoo!
The zoo is VERY nice, and not too overwhelming!




They even have longhorns.... "whatever" Lexi!




They have this bird room where you can purachase sticks of peanut butter and a bird will come perch and eat. I LOVE Lexi's expression on her face. She really wanted to do it, but looks a little scared!



Cooper liked this hat in the gift shop! Seriously!






Here he is,.... wiped out AGAIN! The clock reads 6pm.






Here's our fishing trip we took.








Go Lexi!









Cooper was very focused!









There is a place called "Brookshire's Museum". It was really neat. They have the largest selection of "stuffed" animals - you know, the kind that used to be real.
It was kind of creep, but neat to see some animals up close that I will probably never get to see.
The kids LOVED it!












Lexi is being attacked by a lion!










Monkeys playing poker.








Outside, there was a HUGE playground, with a life-size caboose.....








and a real tractor!











There is also a Tiger Refuge we got to go to.
There were some famous tigers there.... for example, the tiger that is on the cover ofone of Michael Jackson's albums. I can't remember which one, but the tiger was just a baby.





















There is also a neat Rose museum & garden. My camera died right after I took the picture below. Trust me,.... that STUNK! There were dresses from the old Rose Queens and the garden was HUGE and SO beautiful!!












When it rained, the kids choregraphed their own dance to the soundtrack of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factiry". It is HILARIOUS!!!











Say "Cheese"!









Lexi entered a hula-hoop contest - and won!! Those girls were hula-hooping for almost 30 minutes!!! Can you imagine?










Here's a VERY short video of her hula-hooping.
I can't figure out how to rotate it - sorry!

Look at Lexi go, I wish I was that good at hula-hoop. Looks like the trip was a lot of fun.
