Wild Animals

Ah. I love our zoo. And i finally got to share it with Erin and her chicas. It was a "last hurrah" Wednesday afternoon. Sadly, right as we started off on our zoo adventure, Fiona developed an ear infection to go along with her pinkeye, but amazingly she was awesome at the zoo even feeling lousy. We did a quick tour, just enough to give them a taste and want to come back to CO for MORE, right???

Holy freaking tongue!



Keegen could not take his eyes off the many many giraffes

It was FREEZING but being the true Coloradoans that we are, we weren't phased...(Ugh). Luckily most of the animals were in their warm cozy houses so we just ran from house to house. I love that we can feed the giraffes. What a fun thing. This was the first time i've fed them in their house. Not as fun as outside, but it was definitely warm. All the kids enjoyed it. We spent some time staring at the lion family. Beautiful. Enjoyed my favorite house--the hippos. It's my favorite because it's so random. Hippos, pythons, penguins, komodo dragon and fish tanks. Like i said, random. But again, warm too. And then we ended in the primate house. Lots of babies at the zoo (giraffes, lions, orangutans and gorillas) which is fun to see.


How gorgeous are they??!

We burned home and got some lovely numbing drops into Fi's ears which seemed to quickly do the trick. Got the kids fed (thanks Doug!) and off Erin and I went to meander around World Market and Target and then a late dinner at Chili's. I loved sitting and talking and laughing with my sis. Seriously good times.
