Zoo Time!!!

Last weekend, Emma's Grandma Rita, Great-Aunt Kimmie, and Aunt Wee-Wee came for a visit! On Saturday we were so excited that the weather was perfect for a visit to The Jacksonville Zoo! So we all loaded up to go see the animals!!!

Emma loved posing on the concrete alligator but she wasn't such a big fan of the real thing! Most of them remained under water so Emma couldn't really figure out what we were all staring at! So she just hung out with the safe alligator!
Emma certainly enjoyed petting the baby llama's (is that what these things are?) In this picture she was giving one a kiss! I'm sure that was sanitary. Needless to say, she washed her hands very well after this stop!

Next, it's time for a Carousel Ride...or not. Emma screamed wanting to ride so Richard put her on the zebra and when it came time for her to be strapped in, she was done. They issued a refund and we were on our way. No carousel ride for Em! But you'd never know it looking at the picture!

And who could pass up the photo op with the gorilla? Emma kissed him also!
This turned out to be a classic. As we were leaving the park I realized that I didn't have any pictures of Em with her Gma and Aunt Kim! So...I quickly turned around and yelled "FREEZE" and this is what I got. Who knew that Emma knew what that meant!
We had a blast with our family and we can't wait for everyone to come visit us this spring and summer!

WOW! You went to a zoo where they let the DRESSED hippos out among the humans! Bet that was fun.

Its a good thing you didn't put those other HORRIBLE pictures on here! I would've disinherited you right after I spanked you!
