Something to Say

Today, Ben had a story to tell.
(This is just a small clip of the whole thing.)

Two Years Old

How can it be that my little Leah is two years old?!

Leah - one day old!

Happy 2nd Birthday to my beautiful, spunky, energetic little girl!  You continue to make us smile every day!

Happy Halloween!!

This was the first year that Leah got to go trick-or-treating.  We met up with a couple of ninjas, a good witch, and a rockin' ballerina and hit up a few houses.  (Thank you, Birds, for having us!!)  Needless to say, Leah liked Halloween.  Too bad she had to find out that it only lasts for that one day. 

Fort Worth Zoo

During Joe's time off between jobs, we were so happy to get the chance to go to the Fort Worth Zoo all together on a nice quiet weekday. We all enjoyed the day and got to see some pretty beautiful and amazing animals. Here are a few pictures:

Leah loved the Bird House!

The animals were great, but this may have been Leah's favorite part of the Zoo.

Leah did NOT like these guys...least favorite animal to see up close!

I think my 2 favorite parts of the Zoo were the gorillas (always a favorite of mine) and watching Joe get the White Tiger to stand up and stalk him.  It had been lying down, but Joe went up to the glass and turned his back to the tiger.  Almost immediately, the tiger moved into a pouncing position and then proceeded to walk up to the glass.  Here's a little video of the tiger pacing back and forth, licking his chops for a little bit of Joe...
