Phoenix zoo

I didn't take many pictures, but here are a few. At the Phoenix zoo we got to feed the Giraffes! It was awesome! One little boy got his hand too close. The giraffe wrapped its tongue around his hand and took all the food. When it released him, his hand was dripping with slime! It was sick.

We came to a monkey cage where the monkeys had hair that stuck straight up on their heads. Upon seeing them Gage screamed "Mom! They have the same hair as you!"

Near another cage, a guy walked by, spotted an animal and exclaimed "That is cute! What is that?" Leah simply said, "Oh, that's just my husband, Dylan."

In the nocturnal creatures building, a 10 year old boy was looking very closely at some cockroaches. Leah tickled his neck and he wigged out! We could've stood there all day with a piece of grass and been so entertained! It was hilarious!

Elaine, the female gorilla at Hogle Zoo in Utah, was drawn to Leah whenever we went there when you kids were little. I'm detecting a pattern here...

P.S. You were at the Wildlife World Zoo, which is different than the Phoenix Zoo.

I love Leah's kids. They say the best things.

I'm pretty sure I have almost exactly the same shot (with probably the same giraffe) at that zoo! How funny.

looking at the picture of Leah with Allie, you were right, Allie does look like she should be Leah's daughter. I sure love that Allie face. More video's of her please. - mom
