My brothers birthday at the Zoo.

On the 17th we went to the Detroit Zoo. We had a lot of fun!  While we were there we saw flamingos, whose necks look like wires, because they bend them in such odd ways. We also saw some lions, we were told by the docent how the lions came to the Detroit zoo. She said, there was an abandoned house near to a school and as the school children walked by they would hear what sounded like a lion roaring. The children told the teachers when they arrived at school, but no one would believe them. After a couple weeks of the children continuing to insist that they were still hearing lions roaring, somebody called the police, who checked out the house.  They found that some drug dealers were using the abandoned house as their hideout and had a pair of lions there to scare people away. So that's the story of how the Detroit zoo got two of their lions, believe it or not! Unfortunately we forgot to take any pictures of the lions, but there are many other pictures below.


Here are some pictures of my brothers birthday at the Zoo.

Isn't the butterfly pretty?

Camp Barakel (family camp)

On the 5th-8th of September our family went to Camp Barakel, for a family camp. While we were there we heard good preaching, shot BB guns, and went kayaking. My brother Lance, along with our mom and I, shot the bows. Some of the members of our family went on the zip line. They said it was a lot of fun! Even our Mom, who does not like height's went on it and said it was a lot of fun. They have a blob there also. A blob is were you sit on the end of a giant air pillow and someone jumps on the other end and you go flying into the air and land in the lake. We also went swimming in the lake that they have there and Lance and I played in the game room. There are some picture above of Camp Barakel.
