beautiful day

It was gorgeous here today so we went to the zoo again! Wednesday's are $2 Wednesday's during the winter and today was the last one of the season, so we figured we better not miss it.

Hudson fell asleep right after we got there so he missed the first couple exhibits but when he woke up he was in a happy mood - and he even let Papa and Aunt Celeste hold him so Mama didn't have to hold him the whole time - that was a nice break! He is still being pretty clingy since the teething began...he has one little tooth poking out now, but we can see several others just below the gums.

Lots of the family got to go to the zoo too- including Garret and Callista. It was lots of fun. Garret spent the whole afternoon looking for "kangakays". Some kind of wierd kangaroo evidently - they are blue or pink and have horns and make a sound like "yippee". We never saw any but one did bop Garret on the head one time but we couldn't catch it.

Hudson checking out the penguins. They were swimming around and very active today and he liked watching them.

The cousins.



Marbles the Chimpanzee. Hudson loved the monkeys and watched them real close.

Tried another group picture but Callista was the only one who would cooperate...

Yeah, I'm only EXTREMELY jealous here! This is why going away for school is no fun.
