How many bears are there???

I found this photo on Facebook via a cousin in Alaska... Someone he knows took this picture- not sure where they were standing or if they were standing.... anyways... They said "a bunch of brown bears feeding off a whale carcass. How many bears do you see?"

I think I counted around 40, but I dont know the correct number.... freaky huh!?!? 

3rd Post for the World Wild Zoo

Pop Pop & Grammie Na took the 3 of us (E had to work) to the ZOO! It was sooo much fun. A bit of a drive, but I think it was well worth it. the Zoo is next to Luke Air Force Base which is in Litchfield. I think I might like it better the Phx Zoo- way better Petting Zoo- they had Deer, a baby deer (which was so adorable), Lamas, and Goats. She even went down the slide a few times. We (I) got to touch/pet a sting ray (for free), and a Giraffe. They had tons of Tigers and or Lions- even some white ones. They had singing dogs which were adorable, you get up close to most of the animals- the Rhino, Zebras, birds, monkeys, etc. They had 3 buildings worth of different types of fishies. Some of them were so beautiful with all of their bright colors. They had a few sharks, Purana's, sting rays, star fish, and a lot more. OH! Even a white alligator. Now that was really cool. Ellie gave it a kiss thru the window of course. But of course her favorite was the tigers and sadly I didn't get any pictures of them.... Renee & Bunkie did you happen to get some? 

We also took a ride on the Choo Choo Train! You could also take a boat ride or a skyline ride, but we just did the train. Which was fun and neat to do. Even Caden got to see the fishies and he LOVED it. His eyes got all big and he just watched them swam around. So cute!!! :)

Thanks again for taking us to the ZOO! We had a lot of fun and we are still talking about the animals. :)  Enjoy the next 2 post underneath of our trip to the ZOO! I think I took around 100 pictures, but not to worry, I didn't post them all :)

my little girl turned 2!!!!

On her Birthday I bought her a glazed dunkin donuts & she had Apple Juice with 2 of her favorite cousins, Tanner & Bailey. Then her Daddy came home early from work and we played at the house. We asked her what she wanted to do and she wanted to go see the Animals, but we got their to late. :(    So instead we took her to the Toy Store and she got to pick out a present. She had the whole store and she picked out a book. The funny thing is the book is called, "Happy Birthday To You!" At one point She picked up a baby doll and E told her to pick one. She thought about it, and put the doll down and kept the book. Then we took her to the Bicycle section and let her ride them. We told her that she can have one, but she can choose which one she wanted. She originally picked this black and red bike and we were like ummm no, how about this one. The pretty pink and blue one. So, when you ask her about her Birthday, she would respond back to you by saying a bicycle. Then after that we ate at the Cheesecake Factory. They brought her out her own icecream and she ate it ALL!!! She kept saying, "Its Chocolate cake!" (Not sure where she got Chocolate Cake and how she knows what Chocolate cake is). So she had a wonderful 2nd Birthday!!!

That Saturday we had a Birthday Party for her. Almost all of her family was here- we were missing the KY crew, and a few great aunts & uncles. We went to the park, and she got to go down the slide all by herself... I am so proud of my little girl. :) We sang happy birthday to you, she blew out her candles with Daddys help, ate the frosting off the cake, opened up 2 or 3 gifts and then it was back to going down the slide and running in the green belt area. It was a lot of fun!!! :) I hope everyone else had a great time building their memories of our little girls 2nd Birthday Party!!! :) 

Here are a few pictures of her on her Birthday and her at her 2nd party - ENJOY!!!!! :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SWEET LITTLE GIRL!!!!
