These Animals Bite!

After a fine evening of pampering with my sister, we ventured to the San Diego Wild Animal park to enjoy the 85 degree weather during the long MLK day weekend. Just as we were approaching the entrance, I heard somebody holler my name. Unfortunately, my first thought was, "Oh crap! The only people that might still know me in Escondido are probably people I once evicted!" I was delighted to find that those beckoning me were dear family members: Carlton, Piper and Maddie--all wild animals in their own right!

Here's proof that my kids are jack asses:

The kids had a fabulous time spinning each other into oblivion in these empty tortoise shells. Once Carlton got them going, I was sure someone was going to lose their lunch, but the little animals proved me wrong.

Caleb and Amy take a more serene pose on the shells.

Oh yah. This kid LOVES me!
It was a great little coincidence! Glad we ran into you guys! And Carlton, be sure to call when "The History of Toilet Paper" airs. I'll be waiting.

How fun! I guess there is some benefit to having such summer-like weather in January.

Shanabug - Musta' been a hoot!

Shellie & Diana - 85 degree weather in January is EXACTLY what I DON'T love about Southern California.

Some change in the seasons would sure be nice.

Then again, the grass is always greener...
