Hair, Alligators and Bugs!

We bought a season pass to the zoo and have enjoyed using it!

Katie loved the camel she was a little bit afraid at first but she warmed up to him quickly and then she didn't want to get off.  Typical kid!

Riding the carousel

Still riding while I was taking the picture and had a strange tingling on my head....

Right after I took the above picture a kind woman at the zoo said, "Please don't panic but you have a large insect on your head!"  Of course I started panicking! Not that I like to think of myself as one of those whimpy girls but I really don't do well with bugs, especially when an unknown one is on top of my head!  I was too afraid to reach up and touch it and thankfully Stephen had come off from the carousel and he hit it off of my head.... after many attempts!  So here it is a HUGE cricket, I think that is what it is.  Needless to say I was very happy that it was off from my head and back on the ground.  Geez these bugs here in Florida are getting the best of me!

Here is a picture of something we don't have to go to the zoo to see!

I just really liked this picture of our nations symbol.  At the zoo they have rescued eagles that have been harmed in the wild.  It was neat to be so close to one and get such a close up shot. 

Here are some shots of my Annie jumping away in her bouncer.  She does not love her bouncer like Katie did rather I think she just tolerates it!
