The Lion King

I thought I'd post some of Bud's safari pictures from last week with our last team this year. It was a group of 6 men, so Bud and Austin were off on their man trip for a few days. Bonus that Bud has been friends with most of them for several years. The guys had brought over some of the new camping stuff for Mattaw's new safari business and got to try it out first...

Since this past year has been the most safari pictures we've had EVER, I was going to just have a top five pick to share. Well, the more I went through them, the more I found I liked. So here's my top 15...





Crazy lookin African lizard

Jump!

I especially liked all the lion pictures he got. And now I have the song from the lion king stuck in my head: 'oh i just can't wait to be king'.

Here are some young males learning to hunt with a herd of wildebeest...

On the prowl...

No kill today. They'd rather play. Look how cute...

Another group of babies with their mama

Oh I just can't wait to be King.
Everybody look left... Everybody look right.... everywhere you look I'm... standing in the spot light...
Can't you hear little Simba's roar on the lion king when looking at this picture?

In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight....

Ok, so it wasn't technically the jungle. But I'm on a theme song kick. I'll stop now.

More updates to come on Mattaw Children later today....

My class of first graders started a reading unit about animals and their habitats and I pulled up your blog to show pictures only to be blessed by today's photos!!! My class loved them!! Some of my students are really great readers and enjoyed reading your Lion King captions! Thank you for sharing! Some West Texas students got a great picture experience of the African animals! I can't wait to experience all you post about myself! Praying for y'all. Our team is SOOOO excited!
