Spring Break!

This past week was spring break for me. Brian took the week off of work also and we had so many ideas of things we could do.

The first idea we had was to get out of town. Anywhere relaxing.

Then Brian lured me into staying home with the thought of putting Bamboo floors in upstairs!

Well that fell through when we found out that the floors we want are on back order....

So we decided to do some fun things here and there and some home projects here and there.

What we really ended up doing was, sleeping in, cleaning, laundry, potato potluck with our amazing neighbors, movie watching, happy hour, family gatherings, and we went to the San Diego Zoo!!!

I have to say that going to the zoo is pretty high up there on my favorite part of break. I loved visiting all of the creatures!!! I'm such a freak and I'm sure people around me thought so when I baby talked to the animals...(I can't help it when they are cute, baby talking to them is just uncontrollable then) So here are some of my favorite creatures we visited.

Giraffs!!!! Not only do they have the best wild animal print ever and are amazingly tall and fun to watch, these guys recently had a baby!.... The baby Giraffe is so new it didn't have a name yet. ( I was disappointed I missed my chance to feed them)


Okay these guys were my absolute favorite!!! I love these big kitties!!! The Lioness pranced around and played for us and the Lion roared for me. I loved it! He was so loud!!!! I am disappointed that I missed him eating his meaty bone, I would have loved to see that! ( I know weird that a vegetarian wants to see a lion ...and other big cats...eat their meaty bone treats.)

Zebras!!! I loved these guys too!
This little Meerkat barked for us!
I just wanted to cuddle with the Koalas.
GRIZLY BEAR! OMG! These guys were soooo neat! Very happy I got to see them.
Oh look at this lovable creature I encountered on the zoo's Skyfarri.
And of course mama hippo and her baby hippo!!! We had the pleasure of watching mom give her baby some swim lessons! I just wanted to hug and baby talk this little big guy so badly. They were too cute!!!!

Of course these guys are just a few of the animals that I loved seeing. There were many more like the elephants, tigers, jaguars, peacocks, and more! ....I am very happy that Brian took me to the zoo!
