Great-Grandchildren, Miles and Miah

We then met our friends Terry & Annie in Deadwood
this is their daughter, Hadley

Their son, Jude

Mr. Miles

...and Nicole, doing her seductive Kangaroo face

We went to visit "the Roo Ranch"

Hadley named the kangaroos "Flower" & "Betty"

and I think this one may have been "Princess" according to Hadley

Nicole was so happy to introduce Miles to the kangaroos!

After "studying" this kangaroo for about 7 minutes...
Hadley determined it was in-fact not a kangaroo
but rather a person because she saw his t-shirt

They would even let you pet them

Nicole wanted to trade in the dogs for the kangaroos

We also got to see a couple Joey's

...and another baby kangaroo

Miles & Jude (Miles even got Jude to laugh for the 1st time)

...hmmm... just had to take a picture I guess

This is Hadley when we told her she had to get out of the spa "swimming pool"

This is Hadley the rest of the time
