Mini Vacation - Day One

Last week, Kevin was able to take some time off from work and we enjoyed a mini-vacation. First up was Chloe's first trip to the zoo. She spent a lot of time looking like this:


Peering over/around the stroller to see all the interesting sites. Of course, if she couldn't see the animals in the exhibit, we took her out to look. I asked Chloe where the rhinoceros was....

Yep! That's it! :)

We had a really good view of the elephants....although Chloe seemed more interested in their fountain and water....

and this giraffe was eating leaves off the tree:


The gorillas had just finished eating lunch....

and the American Black Bear was taking a nap:

Chloe's favorite part of the day was the time we spent in the aquarium. She liked being close to the fish and watching them swim around.


We saw sting-rays...
and the polar bear....


and watched the sharks eat lunch!
The last animals we saw were the sea lions. Kevin was taking video while one sea lion started following Chloe and I! It was pretty funny!



We had a great day at the zoo! Next post: what we did for the rest of our vacation!

Looks like a fun zoo trip! Chloe is so cute -- can't wait for 'the girls' to see each other again at homecoming! :)

Thanksgiving Turkey

My brother-in-law raises turkeys, and we had one on Thanksgiving this year! It was a 31 pound turkey and took up a lot of space in my refrigerator for a few days before the holiday. I started the cooking process early so it was done by lunchtime.  Here is the turkey, barely fitting into my oven!  "the farmer and the chef" :)  

More Bloopers

These pictures just make me laugh ~ especially the last two. I have a feeling that Aunt Laura, in particular, will think those last two are funny also. :)
