a day at the zoo...

my uncle kyle & his family came from texas to visit us!! on saturday we all went to the birmingham zoo. madison & i get along really well together.
of course we saw my favorite -- the flamingos!! i love them because they are luau animals.
baby liam came along too. isn't he SO cute?! we also went to the lorikeets. i was afraid to go in, but kyle & madison & grammy fed them with nectar! we got to watch the sea lions eat their lunch & do tricks! we ate lunch at the safari cafe & played on the playground. the elephants were very close to the fences & we got to see them pretty close! but madison & kyle got to see the giraffes up REALLY close!! kyle & madison rode the "wild slide" but i just enjoyed watching! of course we rode the train :o) WHAT A *GREAT* DAY!!!

sunny bunny comes home...

one of my all-time favorite books is a raggedy-ann & raggedy-andy story "sunny bunny comes home." i've been reading it for years, but i have recently become even more in love with this book. it is about a little girl who is bored, searches through an old trunk in the attic & finds an old stuffed bunny. it was the 3rd rainy day in a row & marcella ran out of things to do. today, i was reading it as mommy & i ate lunch after church. mommy remembered that SHE had an old toy trunk in the attic. so we brought it downstairs to investigate the contents. i decided that skye (my trusty paw-patrol pup) should be re-named "sunny puppy" & she told us the story along with the toys we found in mommy's old trunk. honestly, i think mommy was even more excited than i was! mommy's old trunk was full of barbies & clothes & accessories. we had SOoOoOo much FuN!!!
