Happy Memorial Day

Thank you to all who have served our country!

A Fort for Dog!

 Our poor dog is terrified of thunderstorms!  She shakes and gets her self all worked up over the tinniest bit of thunder in the distance.  

 Today, she got her self under the steps and Dave along with Sarah built her a bunker to hide out in till the thunder was over.

At one point Dave joined Dog to help calm her down and tell her that everything would be ok.

Poor dog, but such a good dog to put up with being trapped under the steps during a impending storm.

A Fun Day at the Zoo!!

 Always the first stop...

 Turtles!

 Then the next stop and Sarah's favorite the porcupines!

 Dave was making sure that Sarah saw both porcupines.

 The fox was taking an afternoon snooze.

 Sarah thought that it was very funny that the one long horned sheep kept butting the other one!

 Watching the long horned sheep.

 Checking out the ugly bird.

 "See the "dog" Dave?!"

 I think this guy was having a bad horn day!

 Checking out how to make their own pig compost at home.

 The monkeys were out and about today climbing all over their cage.

 We think this frog might be new at the zoo, we have never seen one so big!

 This guy was sticking his head out to say to hello to Dave.

 Saying hi to the elk.

 The bison were cooling off in the water today.

 Dave found a few more turtles in the swan pond.

 Including a few baby ones.  (see them on the rock?)

 Joan the pig with her boyfriend.  We asked one of the workers if he knew the boy pig's name, but he said that he was new to zoo and did not learn all of the animals names yet.  By the way every animal at Elmwood has a name!

 These parrots were very noisy today.  They were baaaing like sheep, which had sarah very confused and Dave in hysterics.

 One last stop at the porcupines, but this time they were cooling off with big blocks of ice.

"I wish I had a big block of ice to cool off with, it's hot at the zoo today!"

Sarah's 1st Haircut!

Sweet and Sassy her we come!

Sitting like a big girl and discussing her new with her her stylist!

Ready or not.

"Umm...I'm not sure of this.."

"Maybe it's ok.."

"Or not.."

"This is not fun!"

"Oh..but wait there is a big girl getting her hair done, too!"

"I guess I can do this!"

Sitting nice and still!

All done!!

Fabulous Fridge Friday!

Bathing Suit Beauty!

First time in her swimsuit that she would not put down at her party! 

 Loving dumping the water!

 A few ducks come out to the water table today!

 Dave watering the plants!

 And cleaning off Daddy's police car!

 Water the tree!

 Happy girl!

"Dave you are so funny!!"
