Rockin’ the Phoenix Zoo for St. Pats Day

My mother-in-law, Ann, treated me and the boys to the Phoenix Zoo today. We had a blast!

Declan rode a camel, who he named Bill. All by him­self too!

They hugged a Komodo Dragon, who they couldn’t decide on a proper name for.

They proved that Cot­ton Candy will be this years newest accessory.

  4. I love see­ing post about par­ents or adult role model spend­ing time with chil­dren. Now that I am older I wish I appre­ci­ate those moments more. When I go to the zoo or fam­ily time since we’re all sep­a­rated by our own lives.

    Please tell me that wasn’t a real Komodo Dragon?! My mom took me to the zoo in Ore­gon this sum­mer– and I got to pet baby lions. They were really cute, but it was still nerve rack­ing to get in there with them.

    The boy is really cute. It reminds me of my child­hood days where I spent my hol­i­days in the nearby zoo, with my friends. But they did not have a camel. We had enjoyed in adopt­ing the jaguar of his speed and action, mim­ic­k­ing the chim­panzee etc. Thanks for remind­ing those mem­o­ries. Now am old and I have grand chil­dren for the same age as that of that boy! I loved to spent time with my grand chil­dren too. The pics are really cool… Yeah I mean it!
