A birthday with the animals
Today is Curt's birthday. It's a big one...he turned 30! He decided to take the day off of work and spend it with me and Benjamin. He has never been to the zoo and wanted to check it out. It was a perfect morning. The weather was great and it wasn't too busy.
Ben and a close encounter with a hyena. I could not believe he came that close to the glass!
Beating away at the drums. He has serious rhythm. :)
Ben got so excited to see the giraffes up close.
Curt took him over to feed a piece of lettuce to the giraffe. The giraffe stuck his tongue out so fast to grab it that I didn't get that part in the picture.
Leaving the African Safari part of the zoo. It is misty and Ben kept wiping his eyes to try to get it out of his face!
Curt and Ben riding the carousel.
Hanging out on the log ride...since Curt never goes to the zoo, I thought he needed the full experience!
Ben playing on "Little Poof" the train.
Petting the goats. They weren't too nibbley today.
Ben brushed them for the first time. He loved it! He kept walking after all the goats to brush them.
After the zoo we headed to Cebolla's for lunch. It was Curt's birthday choice. I had never been there before and I thought it was pretty good. Ben enjoyed eating the chips...as you can see from the picture above.
