MK Nature Center- CHECK

Last night Cade and I had FHE plans and then we ended up making new plans spontaneously. 

Don't make fun of us. We went to the MK Nature Center dressed up as if we were going to the temple. 

Because...that was actually the plan.

We wanted to walk around the Temple grounds--and even for just walking around the temple grounds I knew we didn't need to get this dressed up, but had us all do it still.
This confirmed: The temple and temple grounds too, are closed on Monday. So, that was sad. We thought it might be closed, but we also thought, "nooo, the temple grounds will be open, it's just the temple that is closed on Mondays...."
So, like I said, I felt like maybe we were getting a little bit too dressed up for just walking around the temple--but we were DEFINITELY way too dressed up for the MK Nature Center. We went anyways, because, when you go to Boise from Nampa for something, you don't turn around to travel 5:00 traffic back home. And the MK Nature Center kind of sounded fun.. We went. And even though I felt like a goof, it was still fun!

Don't let this look fool you

 

Squirrel! 

Last year

Last year when we took Aleah we saw a deer there. Since we didn't see any deer this time, we took a little drive.... And we found some! Up in the foothills. We also saw a wolf. Don't laugh at us... Haha. Okay, because we sound like dorks claiming we saw a wolf when it was probably just a coyote--We saw a coyote. But, I still think that's cool. I had never seen a coyote before.

When we turned back to head home we found a herd of deer off the side of the road and in the lot of a house that was being built. So we pulled over and showed Aleah the deer. 

 I like spontaneous little adventures. Deer might not be exciting to someone who seems them often, but 

1. Everything is more fun when you are showing a child something new

and 

2. When you don't see deer too often, it's kind of fun.

WOLF! :)

A good family night! 
Next time we will try to dress more appropriately for the adventure.
