Pet the Camel




Samuel loved petting the baby camel at the Virginia Safari Park!


Jackson seemed to enjoy it also.










Thompson kids have a way with birds...



Learning from the wisdom of the tortoise...








Hungry (but patient) tigers



This was a RETAKE of a photo from a prior blogpost.


This was the photo from our trip in 2011 (only 4 short years ago).





Sunny says she would like to go see the animals too.

Life in the Woods


Sunny and Chance enjoy some shade.

Sophie Thompson is 11 Years Old!!



The requisite pink princess sheet cake: #delicious!








She finally managed to blow out ALL the candles


and seemed quite pleased with herself...


Speaking of Sophie, I recently discovered this cute photo from the winter months.
It is quite the outfit if you realize she has her leg braces on under all those clothes!


Also, this car seems like it could be the future Sophie-mobile!
