We had an interesting day at the pool... It started out perfectly normal. Bright day, slight breeze, and 2 little boys full of energy needing some (more) outside time. This time I even went, and I am glad I did.
While doing some of the usual activities... Hoarding a ball.
And lounging in the chairs next to mommy...
(This is when it got interesting) A neighbor got to talking about children and their natural interest and curiosity in animals. She left and came back a while later with this:
This is a baby anaconda... WHAT?! Yes, this is her pet. She had just eaten a rat and had a large bump in her. Yuck. Hawken was only medium interested and preferred to play with his ball, but Matix got brave and HELD IT!! The lady was very attentive and took her off of Matix when she started to look hungry again...
This was a very weird afternoon, to say the least. I still don't know what I think about this little adventure.

Wow!!!! What a brave little boy- and mom!
Matix is much braver than me! I am so afraid of snakes! Just seeing the pictures gave me the willies! :)
Looks like a fun day at the pool!
Oooh! I don't know if I could have done that! Brave of you and brave of Matix.
I don't know how you even got your camera out. I would have been stuck on trying to decide "yes or no" to this!!!
