Welcome 2010!

Happy New Year! 2009 was a great year for our little family, so I am looking forward to this year. :) We decided to spend New Year's day with the kids at the zoo. Michele and her boys came along and we had a blast. It was actually a pretty dreary day so the zoo was not busy at all. I purposely didn't take my camera so that I would be forced to actually LOOK at everything myself too. I get caught up in taking pictures most of the time that I miss things. I did snap a few pictures on my cell phone though.....sorry, I couldn't resist and the kids were sssssoo willing to get their pictures taken. :)

O, Cooper, and Chandler

Funny story - Olivia really enjoyed feeding the birds last time we were at the zoo so we decided to do it again. WELL....since the zoo was so deserted, I guess the birds had not been feed much. As soon as we walked in with our nectar, they swarmed us - it was seriously like a scene from "The Birds" or something! Two little birds landed on O's head....which totally freaked her out! She screamed "I'm done!", *threw* her nectar to the ground, and took off for the exit with Hunter. It was too funny. Cooper LOVED the birds but they wouldn't touch him (he wasn't allowed to hold the nectare, they could have probably carried him away or something!)....which makes you wonder if they could sense "mean." Ha ha. Chandler wouldn't even go into the bird enclosure....funny how the smartest one in the bunch was a 4 year old! LOL
