Still playing catch up... Last week, my older sister and her family came down from Alaska to visit. They and my younger sister's family and my family all went to the zoo.
I think this was the first time all of us girls went somewhere together without our parents.

I've posted pictures of animals at this zoo a lot, so I'll just add the NEW funnies. Lula totally loved the two monkeys and the anoa. She kept jumping up and down and screeching at them and laughing crazily.

| I love how Shane and Evie look adoringly at Lula in this picture. |
We usually skip the touch tank, only because I don't want to have to herd the kids through the hand washing station. But this time we went so our Alaskan cousins could touch the critters.

| Lula loved this too...she kept sucking the seawater off her hands (EW!) |

Right about this time in our zoo tour, we get tired and hungry. This grassy hill is my favorite place to stop and slap together pb&j:

But this really captures the moment:

And here I am, surrounded by my loving sisters:
