good friday zoo excursion

well, i don't know about you, but i had an AWESOME extended weekend.  got to rest & relax & enjoy my little family, but mostly was happy because we got to see the dinosaurs exhibit at the zoo.

(good) friday 2012...trip to the zoo to see dinosaurs!!!
just like a scene from "land of the lost".

the dinosaurs are too loud.  some1 needs to tell them to use their inside voices.

wait!  what's making that noise back there?

the boy wanted to roar like the dinos.

umm...any1 notice there's a t-rex behind us?

& the gift shop strategically placed at the end of the exhibit.  well played, zoo.  well played indeed.

this outting was a stark contrast from our last zoo adventure in summer 2010. mainly because we stayed longer than 30mins. i promise you, even though the boy got in free because he was 1yr old, we paid $30 for 2 adults. so that was like $1 per minute. not cool.  here's a pic of the boy struggling w/ his daddy at the petting farm.
what can i say?  he wanted to do everything except enjoy the zoo that day.  :(

well ok i don't wanna dwell on darker times.  just happy that this yr the family was able to actually enjoy the zoo for longer than 30mins.  & every day since then, the boy's been saying, "& we gonna go back to the zoo to see dinosaurs!"  :)

& now, i leave you w/ this moment of zen...
it's the circle of life, baby.
