Are those the kids? 
These are just two of the amazing animals we saw today at the Fort Worth Zoo. Chris was feeling spontaneous this morning so we packed off to the zoo. It was fabulous! What gorgeous habitats. It was obvious that the animals are happy and well-cared for.
The kids had a great time checking out all the different animals and learning little fun facts. Both declare their favorite animal of all to be the otter- a playful little show-off.
The carnival came to Keller- right across the street from our apartment complex. It was great fun!
Elijah and Chris rode the elephants. Once Elijah was shown how to make it go up, their elephant never came down!
Sadie and I rode in giant dragon teacups with a young man who loved to spin!
A mid-carnival snack of grapes and the coveted popcorn. We were sitting right across the street from our apartment complex- see way right. The kids drooled over this carnival for days as it was being set up.
The kids just love to have their outlines drawn. To color on them? To paint on them? Nope. To lay them on the living room floor and walk by them without noticing unless someone picks them up. OK- occasionally they compare their heights. Could this be a fascination with human chalk outlines? I swear they’ve never seen CSI…
The bike Santa (read Me) was ecstatic to give Elijah for Christmas. The one for which the statement, “Mommy, I’ll ride that bike when I’m five,” has been used interminably to console me because he has been adamantly opposed to getting on it. He pulled it out the other day and immediately rode like a pro. He has no fear, rides like he’s been doing it for years, and says, “I’m all right! I just tipped over!” when he falls down. He rode to Lowe’s with us this morning and then all around the outdoor garden center. If he had his choice, he’d just glue his little bottom right to the seat.
