Best Day Ever!

On a whim today I decided to take Eden to the zoo. Just the two of us. Usually we have cousins or grandparents or friends with us, but today it was just me and my girl. Unfortunately, I forgot to take the camera. Hence, the no picture. It was great day though because we just went at our own pace, we didn't even go our regular route through the zoo. (yep, we go often enough that we actually have a "route") We just went where ever Eden wanted to go. Which means that it took us longer to get through the park, but who cares, we were having fun. Eden would go to the zoo everyday if we took her. She never gets tired of it which is why its so fun to take her. She has a special love of all animals!

Afterward, we decided to drive out to see daddy at work since we were sort of in the neighborhood. This is always a special treat for Eden because all the women there absolutely adore her. (but then again, who doesn't) Seriously, its like going trick or treating sometimes because everyone gives her treats. Thank goodness she only got a sucker today because she was already all hopped up on cotton candy from the zoo!

On the way home, Eden and I were talking about our favorite parts of the day and she informed me that she would like more animals at home; when I asked her what kind of animals, she immediately replied, "Ummm I would like a friendly giraffe." I asked her how on earth we would fit a giraffe in the house. She said, "Oh, that's easy mom, we just shove it through the front door."
