Brazos Bend State Park

Last weekend, we spent the day at Brazos Bend State Park. I love spending they day together as a family of four! We spent time in the nature center and Olivia got to pet a baby alligator. These were the same babies from last time (in the fall) so it was neat to see how they've grown! We also went on a nature hike to see alligators. We saw about 10, 1 of which was WAY too close for comfort. He was sunning himself very close to our path, his nose was touching the gravel! We almost turned around, but that would have taken twice as long, so we stayed to the right as far as we could and rushed past. We were both scared to death and holding tight to our precious girls. But really, I think the alligator could have cared less about us. There were about 50 other people on the trail, and these gators are SO used to people walking by.
