Saw a lot of wildlife at Deer Creek, and reps from The Columbus Zoo & Aquarium were our opening opening speakers. Very fun!
This is Henry, our new BFF at Deer Creek. He visited us at the bonfire.
He came up an took chips right out of our hands. (Probably not the smartest thing for us to be doing!)

Going down!
Nothing beats no lines! A perfect day, rode everything (sometimes 2 or 3 times) and was exhausted when we left at 7pm.
Uno is now up and out of the water regularly.His tail is just a little nub and should be gone in a day or two. He was actually climbing on the wall of the container. The last pic shows how much they shrink from the large tadpole stage to frog, and how he would fit on the tip of my finger (underneath him).
Sunflowers in the backyard.
The only surviving tadpole from the first batch of eggs (laid on 6/6/11) has one of his front arms popping out and is starting to show signs of color. Isn't he cute???
