The kids and I have been so busy that it doesn’t feel like we’re really on summer break yet. They were complaining to me that we haven’t stayed home enough lately. So I’m hoping this next week is easy going, and we can all get what we want. Which includes staying home, working my tail off on editing, playing a lot of games, and most importantly… swimming. I’m far behind on blogging, so I’ll go all the way back to the zoo pictures that I never shared.
I think Emma is so brave that a little bit of her strength rubs off on me sometimes. I surprised my usually careful self by basically touching this peacock with my camera. I’m sure you know that when a peacock is showing his feathers, he’s either being aggressive or trying to impress a peahen. This one was chasing away another male who was in his space so I was being especially brave for me….. although I’ve never heard of someone being attacked by a peacock so maybe I’m not so brave after all.



Baby Lion.

This was some sort of Zebra, and I was some sort of scared that it might gnaw Emma’s hand off.

This was her favorite part of the zoo, holding the bunnies. She wanted to keep one.

We have a full summer planned. Which means I’m going to have to make sure we have as much down time as we can for sanity’s sake. Wish us luck!
