A dAy At thE ZoO!!!

So we got the crew together and went to the zoo. Many of us had not been in years so we were excited to see all the changes and new animals. I came with Jana & Torie where we met Brett, Candace, and Ryker-Bean. Then Kelly came with his cute girls, Alyssa and Lara. Soon Jamie & Taime were there as well. I love getting a group of people together for a day of fun.
Animals here we come......
I had heard they had some new baby animals at the zoo. The baby giraffe was only 11 days old and so dang cute. We also saw a baby white leopard that I wanted to bring home. The zoo is expecting a new baby elephant any day and its a big deal because they haven't had a baby elephant in years & years. I was a little disapointed because they got rid of a few animals, like the polar bears, lions, and hippos. Sad!
So our wild & crazy group more than made up for all the empty cages we saw. My brother Jamie is so funny and I can just say, "Go climb in that tortoise shell." And he will!!!! Or "Go pose on that statue." And he will!!!! He always makes me laugh.
Ryker loved all the animals! I think we all had just as much fun watching this "little animal" as we did the actual ones. He's so animated all the time, which is so cute.
Candace begged me to get her picture taken with the hairy man. I was like "okay, whatever." I think she had a crush on him, I say...let's not ask questions. (jk Candace) All in all, it was a great day!
