This Is Us

A couple weeks ago Melissa, her mom, her aunt, and the kids wanted to go to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point, but due to someone getting up to late (you know who you are, LOL), it was way to crowded and they decided to go to the Zoo instead and would try again the next week. They wanted to get as many things done as they could before Brichette went back to school. Before they drove up to the zoo, they stopped at McDonald's and had lunch. There were so many baby animals... The elephant just had her baby, but couldn't come out for 6 weeks so she (baby) can adjust; Giraffe, Snow Leopard. It was so much fun.

When we first got there all of us were so hungry we got something to eat before we did anything else. There was a squirrel that was running around picking up the crumbs from everyone. So Brichette wanted to throw him some food. Instead of her throwing him a little piece of her pretzel, she threw him a huge chunk. I told her that he can't eat that big of a piece and to throw smaller pieces, but when I turned around it was gone. Now I'm not sure if it was the squirrel or the peacock. The peacock was out begging food from anyone who would give it to him. Anyway... we started putting french fries closer and closer to us, and the squirrel kept getting them. The one picture I got he is right next to my feet. Then we went to one of the Monkey's house and looked at the cute little ones. Then stepped outside and saw some more monkeys. Then we saw the white alligator. He ...
