Friday Zoo Trip

No pictures. I probably took 50 or so pictures of our zoo trip, including ones taken of me with the two kids, of which we have practically none, and there are now no pictures. Somehow the pictures ONLY on the date of the zoo got deleted from the camera. I must have gotten an undercover FBI agent in a picture and therefore they somehow stole my camera and deleted all of them. That makes the most sense. Anyway, you will have a picture-less post and if my camera does it again, it will die a slow and painful death.

We headed to Fort Worth to pick up Aunti Di and Clarissa for a trip to the zoo. Of course the girls absolutely loved it, from the flamingos to the lions. Lorelei's request was, as usual, the giraffes. We enjoyed lunch where the wall was basically a fish tank and the girls loved going nose to nose with a turtle and an alligator. Since Aunti Di was along, this meant a carosel ride (huge smiles) and a train ride too! There is even an old Texas town that has a huge play area. There was a very tricky way to climb up to the top and Lorelei was just a little to short to get up each hole/opening. Clarissa stayed behind to help her and just grabbed her shorts and hoisted her up to each level. It was hilarious! Thankfully Lorelei had no trouble going down the tunnel slide after all that work. Then they enjoyed an ice cream treat too. One of the other highlights for the girls was getting to feed some birds. They could buy a little stick with some bird seed on it and the birds came and ate off the stick. I was just glad I didn't get pooped on. ;) Lots and lots of fun and great memories. Hoping to go again in May before it gets too hot!

  1. Had to chuckle about the camera -- sorry! :-) Mine would die a slow and painful death too if it did the same thing.
