Memphis Zoo Trip

This past weekend my m-i-l and I took the girls to the Memphis Zoo. The weather was perfect for our mini-vacation. Brooke wanted to get her face painted and so little miss Avana had to have hers done too. They turned out really cute. This monkey looked like he/she was actually smiling for the picture I was taking of him/her.

Avana had the map that we got at the entrance and she carried it the whole time. She liked the Panda Bears.

Here are just a few shots of Libby and the girls and a couple more animal shots. We spent the most time, I think, watching the mirkats. They are so animated and put on a show. They pose for pictures too. Kinda like that Monkey. The cheetahs were kinda givin me the creeps. They were pacing back and forth like they were trying to figure out a way to get out of that pen. Brooke caught this one's eye and we went on our way. I didn't want to be real close when they did decide to leap out of there as there would be no out running them.

I love this tiger picture. This is the very first picture I took when we got there of an animal. He just looks so majestic sitting there on that ledge. Needless to say, we had a great time. We stayed the night in Cordova, TN and got up Saturday morning and did a little shopping. But, of course, the girls wasn't much on shopping. There is a store there called Gordman's. It is awesome. We are getting one in Little Rock in October! Can't wait!
