A Chilly Morning With Animals

Today Brady decided that we don't have enough family days. It's totally true, with both of us working, and Brady getting his photography business going, there are not a lot of days where we can get out together as a family. So he suggested we make a day of it and head out to the zoo. It was a great idea! We've never been to the zoo when there has been so much action! We got there when it opened, and today was a fairly chilly day, so all the animals were out and active this morning! We got to see all 3 baby tigers playing... I say baby cuz they are not even a year old yet, but you can see from the pic how big they already are! Did you know that apes really do thump their chests and scream? It's true! Tino must have thought Ansley was cute, cuz we were walking up to his exhibit and he was just chilling out in the sun, all the kids were watching being quite bored. Once we got there though he decided to come out of the shade and talk to Ansley make motions to her and then thump his chest just like you see in the movies! It was awesome! Then once he said his piece he went right back to leaning up against a post and relaxing. We even got to see the baby elephant and her mom doing tricks! I must say that normally when we go the only fun animals are the orangatangs, which most of you know can be pretty hilarious! So bundle up everyone and head to the zoo early!
