Bear World!!!

We went to Bear World in Idaho over Labor Day weekend and had so much FUN!!! We stayed in Idaho Falls for 2 nights. We saw the sights of Idaho Falls like the falls and the temple. When we went to Bear World, the kids were so excited to see the bears. I recommend it to everyone. They have an amusement park that is dedicated to kids who are about 8 and younger. Isaac and Jaida were able to go on all the rides and loved every second of it! They also have a petting zoo where the kids were able to just walk around and pet deer, pigs, chickens, and goats. Jenna wasn't afraid of any of the bears we saw there and we even got pretty close to them on the curators tour where we got to feed the bears bread and doughnuts but when we were in the petting zoo, her entire body shook the whole time. She was freaked out by the goats!!!! It was so sad but funny at the same time! :)



Isaac loved this fawn! He spent so much time just sitting by her and letting the fawn lick his hand. It was so cute!


He was able to feed the deer.






We were able to ride in an open truck and feed the bears at the park. It was amazing to get so close to the bears (safely) and see them approach the truck and beg for food. We would throw the food and they would love to catch it in their mouths!







Jenna even got extremely nervous around this little fawn. She wanted to pet it so bad and would but then she would pull away quickly and want you to stand up with her as soon as possible. This surprised us since she is our most courageous child!


These 2 pictures of Jaida are so great! She loved being able to pet the animals and her smile just lights up the pictures! She is gorgeous!




Isaac took this picture of Luke and I. I look like I'm 6 months pregnant so I'm not completely thrilled at the angle of it but he actually is really good at taking pictures!


Our cute kids at the falls in Idaho.

Idaho Falls is actually a really pretty place. The falls are gorgeous and they have a running/biking trail that people can use to go all the way around it!

The temple is so pretty sitting right along the Snake River. The kids wanted to keep going there just so they could look at the temple. We had such a good time! :)
