Chomp chomp

Over this last weekend, we hopped in the car and scooted ourselves over to Moss Point which is about 30 minutes east of Biloxi.  We went with our friends the Shurtliffs and had ourselves a great time visiting the alligator farm. 


For only $5/adult, we got to hold a baby alligator, see all the big gators, and walk out on the bayou boardwalk.  Emerson just loved all the excitement and kept pointing at and talking to the gators.

  


We got to see a bunch of grumpy gators up close...






Emerson wasn't so sure about touching the baby gator.  He eventually did, but he was mostly just content with watching. 





Only a visit from Louis himself could've made our trip to the gators better:


We even saw a few gators that were up for a small brawl (thanks for the show, Vance!) Enjoy this short clip that includes some girly screams and a few laughs:


We had such a fun time and recommend this as a great little adventure for all. 


And finally, true to form, here is Will exhibiting his fun sense of humor alongside the ashtray:

  1. It's all so fun...esp the video. Much better than our skype viewing.

  4. You're so brave! When I was 11, we went on vacation to Florida and I had nightmares that there were alligators in my room. Since then, the closest I want to get is watching "Swamp People," which is my favorite show, by the way.
    Darling family, though. Emerson is looking so grown up, and you look so great!
