Zoo Party

Case went to a birthday party for one of his classmates this weekend at the zoo. First order of business was checking out and listening to a monkey demonstration. The monkeys were very vocal, doing back flips, swinging all around and overall generally entertaining. Even Cole was riveted.

Next the birthday party took a ride on the carousel. This was Cole’s first carousel ride and even though his look was very stern the entire time, he obviously enjoyed the ride because the water works began when it stopped.

Once in the party room the leader showed everyone a turtle.  Notice how Mallory (little girl in a white shirt with a white bow in her hair) and Addison (little girl in a blue shirt with a yellow bow) are both very concerned over Case's well being.  These are the little girls in his class who like him. 

After the demo everyone sat down to eat cake.  Mallory was standing in between Addison and Case but there was not a chair to sit in so she had to move over.  The jealousy begins. 

Cole particularly liked the cake.  He ate almost an entire piece and after every bite would chirp 'more, more, more.'

The zoo was about to close after the party was over but of course we had to make a trip to feed the giraffes before we left.  I will never get over how massively long giraffes tongues are when fully extended.  

In case you can't tell, the giraffe's tounge is reaching all the way down to Case's hand to grab a piece of lettus he is offering.  The giraffe display is great at this zoo.
