The L.A. Zoo...small but fun. To celebrate my day off of work ( Thank you Dr. King ) we went on a virtual safari to the zoo. The kids love it, we are members so it doesn't cost anything, and there is always that chance that some wild gorilla will eat one of our kids so it is win win win all around.
Here are some of our friends! These are the Hilmos. We let them hang out with us sometimes. They haven't figured out how dangerous we are yet. From left to right we have Janelle, Justin, and Taylor. Either Matthew or Ian's future wife. I'm telling you its going to be cage match...WWF style baby.
Yea...its us! Ian don't eat that! Matthew look at the camera!! Argh...just take the picture.
I gotta get my ugly fat mug in there somewhere.
Komodo Dragon. While we were there I think I heard a kid scream "Is it dead?" That is how exciting they were. And nope...no fire breathing going on.
That's my boy.
We saw even more friends while we were there. Can you believe it! Roll call from left to right: Conner, Vicki, Noah, Abby, Ian, Melissa, Matthew, Janelle, Justin, and Taylor. Vicki is hiding behind the stroller on purpose. I don't know...ask her yourself.
Dude. Just walk around him. A Ram can be such a butthead sometime. (Phflt Bwaaa Hahaha...)
Watch out, there is a train behind you!
You would think three guys could lift this! Wimps!
Look at that train!
Hello... I am your train conductor for today! Just sit back and relax.
I think there is something stuck on the train wheel... Maintenance!
Doesn't it look like this train is smiling too?
Weird faces? No comment.
Two handsome train conductors... I would ride on this train any day!
Matthew is the pro now at dying the eggs
Ian's first egg dying
Hiding from the Easter bunny
Our artistic eggs!
Yeah the Easter bunny came!
Ball?!
Do I give them to daddy?
Oh I put it in the basket... now it makes sense!
The Easter Bunny can't trick me!
I found them all!
Matthew was in shock that he could get as many eggs as he wanted, "More than 3?!"
Sitting with the cousins after the very successful Easter egg hunt
Greek tradition is to roast a lamb for Easter... This is our impromptu lamb
Look at the concentration
His painting deserves a ten!
Rare talent of painting with his teeth... his art will be worth millions
He gets into his art
Ian Picasso or Ian Van Gogh... Take your Pick
Lazy at its finest
Yes, there are two kids in this picture... one has to bother his sleeping brother
Chillin' with Da Boyz, Da Boyz
In with the new!!!!
Oh and the kids...right. They like it too. When we went to get the van we told Matthew that we were going to get a new bigger car and he was very excited. When we had to transfer all of our stuff from the Elantra to the Dodge I asked him if he was going to miss the old car and he thought about it for a second and said "Nope!"
