Little Boys or Wild Animals... You Decide.




A couple of weekends ago our family was given the opportunity to go to the zoo on a special night. We started out looking at the monkeys and the Madagascar animals. On our way back to the pavilion for dinner which was provided for us we bumped into a giant germ and some other friendly mascots.






no... Wannabe did not want to touch the snake...




The boys were determined to have their faces painted. Most of them chose tigers but Sheriff wanted to be a bear.






As Smiley was getting his face painted I was trying to determine what zoo animal his makeup artist had chosen for herself. Or perhaps she was going to a wedding later. Right April? hahaha!!!


We had a great time at the zoo and there just wasn't enough time to see and do everything. The boys really enjoyed the bird show of course and the elephant show where the elephant showed off her tricks.

Brett wasn't able to go with us because this evening was special invite only and we were given 5 tickets (you could not purchase additional tickets). I must say that I was a little nervous about taking 4 boys to the zoo without backup (Brett) but I managed just fine. I would have been MORE nervous to send Brett with 4 boys. hahaha!!!! (I know Brett will read this and say "HEY!!!!")

The next time you go to a wedding you should have her do your makeup.

She did Smiley's and Giggles and another lady did Wannabe's and Sheriff's make-up. All the ladies doing make-up did a great job.

I was close... Brett made a grunting sound when he read it.

Looks like a lot of fun. the scary/cute thing cracks me up! We're learning about cute and handsome. . . rather ELYSE is learning. I thought I should tell her the difference when she called herself handsome the other day!
