Stuckeys

Last Thursday, we were able to spend the day with Dave and Teneesa (and Amelia) Stuckey. I was no thinking blogging when we went, and failed to take many pictures. We enjoyed the start to our day at the Potawatomi zoo in South Bend. While it's not a large zoo, the habitats allow you to see the animals well. In fact, the wallaby/kangaroo exhibit allows you to walk through their exhibit without any barrier between you. The tigers were my personal favorite.

This man was carving a totem pole with a chain saw while we were there.

Tyler was not interested in riding the ponies, but Amelia was. Teneesa walked next to her because it was requested for children 5 and under. But, Amelia seemed brave enough to try it on her own.

After leaving the zoo, we enjoyed lunch at the Fiddler's Hearth, an irish pub downtown. Wayne had bangers and mash (sausage and mashed potatoes) and I had Welsh Rarebit (cheese toast with tomato). I had to get the Welsh Rarebit just because it sounded funny - and Teneesa was kind enough to let me try the fried fish. It was all yummy!

We spent the afternoon catching up and while Tyler and Amelia played very nicely with one another. We had supper at El Camino and then chatted until late. We had a great time.

I wish we could just pack all of our friends and family up and bring you all with us to Kansas! I already miss you all!
