A Joe Joe.

Last Friday was such a beautiful day so we hopped in the car and went to one of our favorite places, the Zoo! Here we are taking a ride on the newly renovated train with my girl Cleo and the boys.


Warren and his favorite elephant. He has to get a picture here every time we go.

The Houston Zoo is the most beautiful zoo I have ever seen. It is filled with rich, lush, tropicals all throughout. These Tai Plants had been planted recently because I haven't seen them before. They were so bright and beautiful. These pics don't really do them justice.

The Lions live! I had to post a picture of the momma Lion awake. We have lived in Houston for 3.5 years and have never seen either of the Lions awake. They have always been sleeping. I had decided that the zoo really didn't have Lions and they were stuffed. They were sleeping again when we first got there but as we walked off they lifted their dreamy heads and opened their eyes for like 3 minutes before they returned to their slumbers.

And here is my sweet little Ben. Just as we left the zoo I handed him a Joe Joe (A cookie of chocolaty goodness from Trader Joes). He was so tired but they are SO delicious that kid was eating it in his sleep! For like 5 minutes. Now, that is the goodness of a Joe Joe my friends. :)

Drooling chocolaty goodness finally, he rests, but the Joe Joe is still in hand.

That picture of Ben is seriously priceless. Can you blame the kid?
