the tiger says wroooaaaar.....






and
the giraffe says....well what does a giraffe say?





and 
the flamingos say....well what does a flamingo say?





when the weather here is beautiful, everyone goes to the zoo. 
well everyone who has children under the age of 10. my daughter is a professional nanny and going to the zoo with three children can be a challenge, so i go with her to give her an extra hand. 
now granted that extra hand of mine always has a camera in it, but still, 
two adults + three kids = a much easier afternoon.

ps...did you see the tiger

  11. those curls!
    cascading down that sweet kissable neck.
    that's what I thought about the first photos.
    then the giraffe!
    after that, all I saw was necks.
    kinda got fixated on them.
    all beauties, those necks:)
    you're amazing.

  12. Cute kids. Yes I saw the tiger. It looked like the little girl was actually roaring in one picture, but why were they turning away when the lion was right in front of them?
