Yesterday was the Talented One's 16th birthday…and since you only turn 16 once…well, we had a few surprises in store for him. We started off with a kidnapping to get him out of the house.
I don't think he expected to be dropped!
After several hours, he was brought to the party; blindfolded
And then he had to wait for his surprise!
I don't think he was expecting this python!
Kim, at Exotic Pets, was awesome! She did such a great job of educating everyone about the many reptiles that she brought, as well as handling them well. She was so patient when it came to letting the kids handle the animals, but made sure everyone was safe, animals, as well as humans!
I told them I was about to drop the snake!
This boy isn't afraid to hold anything! And yes, that scorpion has its stinger!
No matter how big!
This one was absolutely terrified, but you have to give her credit for trying to overcome her terror! Doesn't she look brave?
There was even a kissing iguana!
And chocolate covered mealworms…she wasn't afraid to eat them, either!
I am pretty sure my son was surprised at his party. In addition to the animals, he had numerous friends show up, as well as family. There were special video's made just for him and lots of laughter to go around.
