I knew 5 would be great!

My birthday party wasn't actually on my birthday this year - but 2 days before. It was a great party! We made beaded bracelets, ate cupcakes and ice cream (mine was coconut milk of course), opened presents and then went to the splash park. What a great time!! Thanks to all my friends and family for making me feel special. I am such a blessed little girl. :)

Ft Wayne's Childrens Zoo - where a kid can be a kid and actually see and touch all kinds of things (well, with lots of germ gell). This is a drinking fountain, in the lion's mouth. How awesome is that?! This is a great zoo! I had such a stufabulous birthday. Thank you Daddy & Mommy! 

Sea Lions

Brushing the goats -they loved it (me 2)!

African Journey. It was hot, but not as hot as Africa (thank goodness!)

Lion! Wow -he's close!

What's in here?

Giraffes. There were even some baby giraffes -so cute!

Daddy and me on the carousel - yes, Daddy is ON an animal on the carousel. :)

Have I told you that I love my Daddy? He's awesome!

Hanging out with the apes. :)

Log ride through the Australian Outback. We saw dingos, kangaroos and black swans.

Cheese - on the train ride. :)

I think she was trying to make the same sound as the train. Silly baby!
