zoo

Yes I know it has been awhile since I last blogged! In the words of my sister-in-law Angela "Christmas pictures are getting a little old!" I love you Angela!!! Here in this picture is my Rachael posing with a cutout Lion in front of one of the snack shacks there.


Anyway, we did something really fun recently, We bought a Phoenix Zoo membership just about a week or two ago. Lilly would live at the zoo if I would let her! She is sitting on this tree stump with her friend Lydia. Lydia's mom Michelle is my friend and we have been enjoying the zoo together. Jacob is in this picture but is sitting in back of Lydia so you can't see him. That is one of the things we did during Spring Break. We caught the zoo at a great time. We saw the tigers awake and the Boy and Girl Lions both awake and the Giraffe's were feeding so we were able to see them up close too. It was an absolute thrill for Lilly!

However,this is what Lilly thinks we really come to the zoo for is to ride the Carousel. And she always makes sure she gets on the Zebra! We haven't missed it yet, I am a little concerned for the day to come that we don't get the zebra. There could be quite a few tears a screams to come. She is so much fun to take there. She now has a new love for Monkey Village too. She laughs and giggles at those spider monkeys swinging and flipping all over the place. I've always said she was my little monkey!
