Saturday:)

Today was such a great Saturday! Tricia and Hank called bright and early and asked if we wanted to go out for breakfast with them and to the zoo! Anyone that would pass that kind of day up would be crazy! :) We went out for breakfast at IHOP...my favorite! Then we headed off to the zoo... Emma's first time! She is still pretty little so she didn't really know what we were doing. I'm pretty sure she was more interested in the people around us than the animals:) She did however love the otters...when Trav pushed her up next to the glass she started waving to them... it was too cute! That was pretty much the only animal that she found interest in. Even though only one animal caught Emma's attention...Emma caught one animal's attention! The gorilla!!!:) We brought Emma to the gorilla exhibit and Trav sat her next to the glass where the gorilla had his back to her. The gorilla saw Emma out of the corner of his eye and turned and put his face right next to her... it was the perfect photo! Luckily she had her back to him... I don't think she would have cared for him. For those of you who don't know we sometimes call Emma our "Vanilla Gorilla" because she has such white hair and looks like a little monke:) So we laughed and said the gorilla must have known that she was a Vanilla Gorilla. We stayed at the zoo until around noon and then we came home and took long afternoon naps! It was such an enjoyable day! Have a great day of rest tomorrow!!!
