zoo

our mom's group today went to the zoo.

it was super hot - just standing there and i was sweating! i needed to shave so i could wear shorts [couldn't remember the last time i had so you know its been awhile] but instead of continuing the theme with my clothes for hot weather i chose i dark blue polo... walking along in the sun i began to think, "really? you really had your thinking cap on this morning!" maybe it was because i hadn't had my usual cup of coffee, darn hubby for not making it. that's right, my husband makes it because you make not think its possible to make a bad pot of coffee but it is. no matter how much i try i always manage to screw it up! oh, what a good little housewife am i? plus it tastes so good when someone else does it...zoo highlights: we got to watch them feed the tigers which is always a good show.

they have them jump up on the fence its really exciting.
the hippo's water was clear meaning we could see in and one was sleeping at the bottom. he was even facing us with his nose pushed up against the glass.

the kids were running around, laughing and generally enjoying the day. i always love seeing kids smile and laugh. they are so joyful and so in the moment.

the kids would find the misting fans and get soaked!

chicka passed out before we even exiting the zoo, making a happy momma. i was ready for a nap as well!

this turned out to be such a great day, despite the crazy heat!

sorry to make this blog post a mess! i'm playing around with photos and i eventually gave up, so you get what you get and you don't throw a fit!

chicka chicka boom boom, i'll write again real soon...
