The San Francisco Zoo

Friday we went to the San Francisco Zoo. After driving all through the city and picking up Natalie and ER at their hotel we finally made it and the girls had a good time... Enjoy the pictures and video (it's short but funny to watch Karoline FREAK OUT over being close to the animals)...

The girls were ready to go and see all the animals.

Karoline LOVED the giraffe's the best for sure!

Anderson was sucking his thumb and the bib at the same time! So cute...

I think Emma Raines and Avery could possibly have a future working with Animals but NOT Karoline...

What a cute little boy... he liked being held by Emily while I tried to get Karoline to pet the animals...

Avery was trying to get Karoline to help brush the goats but NO WAY... Karoline would not dare touch!

While ER and Avery were having a grand old time at the petting zoo Karoline really would not even get close to the animals...

Karoline did enjoy sitting on the tractor though...

This STUPID BIRD!!! We were eating a nice quiet picnic when this bird started getting closer to Karoline I thought it was cute so I got up real quickly to grab the camera and it flew onto our table in front of Karoline and ATE Karoline's PB&J!!!!!!!!!!!! Karoline was mortified!!!! She was so scared and I felt so bad for her. She was fine a few minutes later but it was sad!

Happy now sitting with Avery...

Me, Karoline, Natalie, and Emma Raines

So cute holding hands...

Looking at the tigers (ER was fast asleep during the tigers... maybe that is because Wayne is an Alabama graduate!)

The Animals

This funny animal digs a hole and sits in it... it is so strange!

Sleeping Koala...

Funny bears...

Sad story... Natalie thought this tiger was tearing up a stuffed animal and Emily had to inform her that nope, it was a bunny rabbit! SO SAD! But I guess tigers have to eat too...

Sleepy lion... man I wish I could have taken a nap like most of the animals!



It was a fun day but man I was SO tired when it was over!!
Okay, it's been a fun blogging week but I think I am going to go on blogging vacation for a few days! Sorry mom...

Beth I love all these pics! My computer is working again and I can finally log on and see the new blog. The zoo looked like fun...it was a beautiful day! The picture of Emma Raines and Karoline holding hands was precious! Tell Karoline her and Kylie had the same B-day shirt:) Karoline is such a beautiful girl...we miss you all so much and wish we were there! I LOVE YOU!

I got a good laugh at the bird story, although I can imagine how much it probably scared Karoline. Looked like such a fun day - I will be interested to hear what you think of the Oakland zoo when you go. I don't think we'll make it there before we move. Hope you had a great weekend with all the gorgeous weather (our friends will hate us for it!). :)

I have to call Sarah right now to make sure she skips the "bunny" picture. She'll cry for sure. Looks like a fun day at the zoo though. Nope, I see no future in animals for Karoline.

Well, I must say she did not call me and I did see it, but more than upset, I was angry. Why do they do that out in the open where little kids can see it and be emotionally damaged for life? That's funny how Karolilne doesn't want to have anything to do with the animals.
