Mothers Day

We gathered at Alexander's for Mothers day. Kiersten loved playing on the piano. Richard was able to come and it was great to see him and visit with him. He got to spend time with the neices and nephews also.
The kids played outside on the hammock. Michael is so good with Audrey.

The kids have fun playing together and get together whenever they can.
Michael, Aaron, Kenzie, and Brady.

Lions, Tigers and Bears . . . Oh My!

It is allways fun to visit the zoo. Aaron, Audrey, and Faith are standing in front of the cage to the White Aligator or the "Ghost of the Bayou". This Black Bear was pacing back and forth. Logan liked watching the animals.
It is fun to have Teenage boys who enjoy showing the little kids the animals and they are great to help with their little sisters. Brady is showing Audrey the monkeys.
This Leopard was pacing back and forth in front of the window. It was really neat to be so close. It scared Kiersten when I put her up to the window to see the big cat. We went to the bird show. It was the same as last year, but it is fun to see the birds fly over our heads.
Audrey and I waiting for the bird show to start. Audrey had been sick all week and was still sick when we went to the zoo. I caught her bug Sunday and was sick all the next week.
Aaron was watching the Turkeys and other birds on the grass. The local birds were just as much fun as any of the more exotic animals, because they were often more animated.And, finally, you can't go to the Zoo without stopping for a while at the big ball and pushing it around for a while.
