The Animals Were ...nice.

I took the boys to the Denver Zoo last week... it was very nice. Nolan is at that age where the zoo is soooo much fun and exciting.... so I bought a family season pass to get us through the fall and next summer.
As we walked around, we ooo'd and aaaa'd and "oh look how cute!" etc. etc. but I didn't take a single picture,
until I saw THIS......

Holy Freaking HUGE Hybiscus!

.....it was breath taking!

And that sums up the most facinating thing I saw at the Denver Zoo!

I promise i'll take pictures of the kids next time..... haha!

Well, that is a nice flower. Oh and about your message on my Sunday Cyclone post...actually David was taking a nap leaving me to face the storm alone. We've come to a point where sleep takes precedence over all else.

Hi Lucy! I jumped from Keri's blog, and that picture of you at the top looks like Bryce Dallas Howard. I love those flowers at the zoo--I have a picture of Emma next to one and it's bigger than her head!

Isn't it amazing how nature can be so beautiful. Here you are in the zoo with lots of adorable but let's be honest, very smelly, hairy, stinky, sometimes crazy animals and you stumble across a beauty like that. It's a great feeling.
