Happy 4th of July From the Zoo

We celebrated the 4th at Cameron Park Zoo in Waco (about 75 minutes north). It was very hot so some of the animals were asleep, but the elephants were out and one was having a good ol' time cooling off by splashing water all over himself. Samantha just loves elephants, which is the main reason we went and of course it was the one show case that she sat still for the most and whined when we walked off. But of course, she sure did blow that elephant lots of kisses!!! It even looked like he was waving back. Just a note, their zoo is beautiful. We cant wait to go back when it's not so darn hot.

Getting started

Isn't this beautiful?

Gator!

Sam loved to slide through the otter tank!

Catfish says "maow".

Walking on the ledge like a big kid.

Copy-catting big kids that spun this. She cracked up when she got to do it.

Daddy, did you say were are going to see ellllll?!?!

Pink flamingos!

   

 

 

Yee-Haw

Hangin' like an orangutan!

Kisses, monkey! (Then she honked his nose-LOL!)

  

 After we got home, we put out Sammie's new elephant pool and she had a blast splashing in it. There's also a slide that she enjoyed going down. We're happy to see that she loves the water.

HAPPY 4th OF JULY!!! xoxo, Sammie
