Scales & Tales Birthday Party...The Kids Loved it!!

Dane is holding a giant African Millipede. He said the Millipede was tickling his hands!!

Dane is being a little crazy holding this Red Snake!! It was making me nervous the entire time Dane was holding it!

Dane and the kids from the his class petting the 20 foot Boa-Constrictor...I couldn't beleive it was out and crawling amongist the kids. At the end they presenter decided to get all the snakes out. I thought this was Utterly Crazy!! But none of the Mom's told him to stop.

Luke decided to escape the real reptiles and go for a soft and furry Polar Bear in the other room. Lukie came down with a fever at this party and so his cheeks are very rosey...there was no getting Dane and Drew to leave early.

This is Nicholas who was the Birthday Boy entagled in all these snakes. All the kids thought this was so cool. I wouldn't want to be him...eek!!

Drew holding Flapjack the Tortoise! The funny thing is when she was holding him he started to pee a gallon all over the floor. I don't know how it missed her...thank goodness it did!!

Drew and Luke sneaking in to pet the Boa-Constrictor. Luke wasn't quite sure what to make of this 20 foot snake. But, He was definatley interested in getting by it!!

All the kids lined up and getting ready to hold the 20 foot snake. I had Luke up there all ready to go and when I saw how big this snake was I changed my mind and grabbed him out of there. I was scared he would get knocked over by this huge snake. The other Mom's were laughing at me.

This is the guy that presented all these different scales and tales. The kids thought he was so funny! The snake he is holding is called Peaches, she is a Movie and TV star snake. She was just in that new show Modern Family (sitcom) and she is going to be in the new Napolin Dynamite movie. I am sure peaches has been in lots of other shows too.

This is the big Turtle. Dane and his friend Cade loved petting and seeing these reptiles up close. Luke wanted to ride on him like Braiden but never got the chance.

Dane pulling a silly face!! I am not sure what he is doing unless he is trying to pull a face like this Turtle.

Here is our friend Braiden going for a ride on the big turtle. You can tell he is loving it. The turtle was moving at a pretty good speed with him on top. I think the turtle weighed something like 200 pounds. So I guess Braiden's 24 pounds didn't even slow him down...ironically.

This was quite the Birthday party. Dane, Drew and Luke had such a fun time seeing and touching all these scales and tales! The party lasted about 2 1/2 hours and I still had a hard time getting them to leave. After cake and ice cream and goodie bags they were finally ready to go. This was the end of January when the kids were off track. The next few days was when they all got very sick!! At least they had some fun before the sick ickys!
