San Diego Zoo

We spent New Years Eve day at the San Diego Zoo with Tom and the kids.  It was a blast and the kids had so much fun.

Jacob was a doll - he was so excited about all the different animals.... until nap time, that is. 

Adjoa loves spending time with her cousins, especially Brandon.  Over Thanksgiving, they had a love/hate relationship that can only happen between a 4 year old and a 5 year old.  She was, of course, thrilled that she would get to see Brandon again.

Here's some shots at the zoo.  I took them with my blackberry, so the quality isn't the best.

Oh well.

 Riding a hippo with Jacob and Madison.  Brave kids!

 Getting a seal's eye view of the tourists.  Maddie, Tom, Seal, Adjoa, Jacob, Robert.

 Caterpillar and Butterfly.  Pretty accurate, don't you think?

The petting zoo was a big hit.  Adjoa is determined to have a goat.

 Practicing her animal husbandry skills.  The goat seems to be faring quite well.

 Adjoa, Jacob, and Maddie feeding the goat. 

I love this picture! Jacob got a kick out the how the goats eat.  He thought it was sooooo funny.
