Zoo time!!

We went to the ZOOOO!!! and no Sara they did not keep me..sucks right?..I took about 10 pictures, because my stupid camera batteries died. Looking threw my pics I could start telling when the batteries started going. These were the only ones I could salvage..which sucks becuase I had several other ones I wanted..I didnt even get any of the kids :[......but that is okay, I am sure we will be making plenty other trips to the zoo. I love going to the zoo, it has changed so much over the years, they added a HUGE carousel, they made it indoors so you can ride it all year long! Our zoo is open nearly every day of the year! how awesome! This past New Years I took my little brother to the zoo. It was so fun! They got rid of the monkeys a few years ago. It really sucks! it was a huge circular cage and it had lots of toys and swings for them to play on. They still have the indoor monkeys though..which is cool. They added a bird house..you wlak threw and first there are bugs and shit..gross..then there are fish,,then you open this door and it turns in to the hot and muggy rainforest. birds fly freely around and if you look down there are turtles and frogs and stuff! how neat! they also added a new part of the zoo where there are like prairie animals. there are Prairie Dogs, Badgers (scarier and uglier than bucky!). We had a ton of fun! except when we went into the reptile house. It is split into two sections, the first has fish and bugs and bats and some fun activities for the kids. then the second part has gators, giant snakes and wittle snakes, frogs, and turtles. In one little glass cage there was about 5 snakes in there..so I was helping Wyaett count them. A lady and her son were next to us, and all of a sudden a snake that had crawled up the side FELL right infront of us!!!!!!!!! the lady and I screamed! while the boys laughed!.. I was ready to PUKE!! before we went into the Reptile house, we had gone and looked at the lions. You can see the lions from 3 different parts of his huge cage. We were looking at them from the glass section so we can be shielded from the sun. Well Melissa noticed that her nose ring felt a little funky. So when no one was looking she reached up and went to pull the booger off her nose stud(God I cant believe I am sharing this) and to her surprise her little nephew said REALLY REALLY LOUDLY "Aunt melissa, picking your nose is disgusting!" several people looked at me. I wanted to die right there!..ughh..needless to say I was embarrassed. sigh...
