Zoo Day


It was already hot.
One parking lot was already full.
But I had on my good walking shoes,
 had water in the back-pack,
and sandwiches in baggies.
 


This was before we all started to melt.
At the Houston Zoo,
the seals are the first thing you see.
And, the last.  :)
 

 
 



I'd like to grow a plant in the shape of something,
other than the shape of a plant.
I'm sure I'd like one that looked like a rabbit,
but an armadillo might be easier.
 


We haven't been to the zoo for quite a while.
It was fun to see the things they have added.
 


When I see pretty flowers and plants at the zoo,
I think hmmmmm.
Houston is ONE hour from us,
if they can grow it in the zoo,
I can too.
 
I mean at home,
not in a zoo.
 

 
I always like to see an animal grinning.
 

This leopard looked more like a stuffed
animal than any animal I've seen.
There might be some exceptions with koala bears....
 


This was HUGE.
It was PINK.
It was BEAUTIFUL.
 


This bird spread its wings for me to take a picture. 
I thought that was awfully nice.
This bird helped me believe even more
in dinosaurs.
Ugly ones.
 


This is my favorite area.......the birds.
Only there weren't very many birds this time,
and the ponds and waterfalls were all turned off.
Thanks OBAMA.
 


We took James Kelzie to Spaghetti Warehouse.
Great choice.
The food was good and the
experience was perfect.
James got Italian Wedding Soup,
Spaghetti and Meatballs.
And a Dr. Pepper.
I'm glad he was with us today.
 



see m ducks?

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used.  So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books.  It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so  I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have alw...
