Look Who's Here!

Savannah and Cooper arrived today! Their flight was delayed, so we had an anxious wait for them. We we picked them up at the airport and then went to Carl's Jr. for a bite of lunch before going to the Phoenix Zoo.

Savannah liked brushing the goats.  Once she discovered the names on their collars, she would always look to see what each goat was named.



Cooper liked the goats, too. His favorite was named "Rocky Road."



These two would go from goat to goat and brush their hair. I think they enjoyed this part of the zoo more than any other

There was a cool treehouse that they wanted to play in.

Cooper came down the slide with such an excited look on his face! He loved playing in the tree house.



Cooper also liked going in the monkey exhibit. We were right inside with the little monkeys. The would jump from branch to branch and entertained us with their quick moves. There is also a Komodo Dragon exhibit, and he thought that was really cool!

They were pretty worn out from the day of travel and the trip to the zoo. After dinner, they played video games with Nick. We had some bedtime stories, did our secret kisses, and everyone went to sleep, exhausted but happy. About 5 AM they woke up and said they saw "orange bugs" in their room. This was certainly news to me! I have never seen orange bugs in my house. I convinced them they were seeing shadows from the night light and they did go back to sleep for a couple of hours.

Sounds like a fun day- remember when the goat kicked Cooper into the air?
