Ripleys Believe it or Not!

Howdy folks!

We are just seeing such cool things here in Texas. Did you know they have a Ripley's Believe it or not Museum here? Have you ever heard of Ripleys Believe it or not? Here is a link to check out the webpage http://www.ripleys.com/ Its a collection of odd, weird and hard to believe things. It is full of fun facts and cool things. They even have a wax museum. That was my favorite part. Check out our visit. After we got to have candy!!! What a great day!

We have Butterflies!!!

Well it finally happened, the butterflies emerged from their cocoons. We woke up and there was one butterfly in the cage. By the end of the day the first day 2-3 were flying around. Each morning for about 5 days they all slowly came out and were flying around. One morning we actually got to see one coming out! Oh man was that just the coolest thing ever!!!

When butterflies come out they leak out some liquid that is red. It isn't blood. It is meconium. Kinda like their first poop. Ewwwww! But it is kinda cool that they poop red. I think it would be even cooler if they pooped rainbows!

Today we are going to release them. I feel happy because they will get to go and meet other butterflies and travel around and smell flowers and see the sun and be happy. But....I am also a little sad because I like looking at them. Miss Ashlee told us that butterflies only live for about 2-6 weeks depending on a bunch of stuff. Some live up to 8 months but that still isn't a very long time.  They should do everything they can in that little time. Also if we let them go they can go out and make more butterflies.

This has been a great learning experience. I will miss seeing them each morning.  Well I will be right back. We are going to go release them.

They are all out exploring their world. One by one they came out of the ace and flew off. Each one hung around a bit to play in the yard with us. The kids were happy and having fun. It wasn't sad at all. The butterflies got to see the sun, smell the flowers, fly higher and higher in the sky. It was so cool!

Bye Y'all!

Hola.

¡ Muchas gracias a todos por enviarme aquí. Estoy Extrañándote pero te diviertes. Espero que usted está disfrutando de mis actualizaciones. Yo esperaba que usted me permitirá quedarse un rato más largo así que puedo ir a Bulgaria.

Bulgaria es un país de Europa. Dicen que nos alojaremos en Londres, Inglaterra también. Realmente me gustaría ir a conocer esos lugares. ¿Puedo ir por favor? 

Adiós



Hello.

Thank you so much for sending me here. I am missing you but having fun. I hope you are enjoying my updates. I was hoping that you will let me stay a while longer so I can go to Bulgaria.
Bulgaria is a country in Europe. They say we will be staying in London, England too. I would really like to go and learn more about those places. Can I go please?
Bye!

Butterfly Update

Hi Y'all!!

We are excited to share whats been going on with our butterflies. Remember we thought we had 11? Well there are 12!!! Well they all made their way up to the top of their containers where tissue paper was. There they hung upside down and started to make their cocoons....

Then a little later on they were all in their cocoons.  Take a look!

Now we wait to see them come out as BUTTERFLIES!!! I can hardly wait! Can you?
