Turtlemania!

Brett loves animals and reptiles of any kind, so when Kyle read about "Turtlemania"  happening at the Eddy Discovery Center last Sunday, we knew we had to check it out! Brett was so excited and from the moment he woke up that morning kept asking when it was time to go :-)

We got seats up close and waited patiently for the show to begin! 

As soon as the presentation started the turtles came out! We saw all different kinds; Box turtles, Soft Shell turtles, babies, an angry type of snapping turtle, Painted turtles, Tortoises, and more! They brought each turtle around for everyone to touch and get a close up look at, and even let some of them roam around the room!


 This little box turtle had been placed across the room, and when the presenter called for him (and brought out the lettuce) he quickly made his way back, just like a dog! So fun to watch!

Turtles, turtles, everywhere!


All the turtles we saw were kind looking and nice....except this one! He was downright scary!

After the show, we explored the discovery center for a bit before heading outside to take in the beautiful day.



LOVE this boy!



We had a great family afternoon and Brett is already asking to go back :-)
