Catch a Tiger by the Toe

Doesn't he look so friendly?
Report card time again already. Annabelle made A honor roll again, Heaven A/B and Gav AB & 1 C! Not to shabby!! We decided on a day at the Zoo as a reward this time. I haven't been to the Zoo in like....10 years. Probably longer. We had a great time! They have a new addition called Budgiery. Basically you buy these sticks with bird seed glued to them and when you go inside the Budgiery, a billion birds attack you. Annabelle loved it, Heaven loved it over time....Gavin...well he hated it the whole time. Mainly thanks to his Dad who could not resist taunting him....
Cup of birds!

Forced photo...

Gavin was being a good sport about it and posed for a photo....
And then this happened....and he is now scarred for life. Thanks Dad!! 


Bird lady

In the end they both ended up liking it 



After Gavin could take no more, we headed out to see what else the zoo had to offer...
He was so cute and was loving being in the shade. It was SO hot! 

Yes, this is a real person laying with a real baby gorilla!! This is the zoo's newest addition. Her name is  Kigali (no clue how that's pronounced) and apparently she prefers her rest with a human nanny...


Gav and his favorite, Toucan!! 


They always insist on looking thru these....but they're never turned on....

I had just said how friendly this cougar looked...and then it glared at me. RUDE! 

Tiger playing with an ostrich egg...


This was the weirdest  thing ever this monkey was copying John....

See??

Kind of a stretch for a zoo exhibit I think... 



Doesn't he look like a little old man?

Snakes!

Birthday Bash Numero Uno

Pretend It's January 5th, 2013 It's Birthday Season here at the Brandito Lair! Mr. Brandt heads back tomorrow and it's time for the annual triple treat birthday party for Mr. B, Uncle Danny and Annabelle.  Katy made 2 delicious cakes for the event. The boys got their own green cake and Annabelle got her own special Mario Cake.  We had some delicious food and the Birthday people got lots of special prizes!  The UnBirthday Party was definitely a success! 

Baby You're A Firework

One of these outfits was self chosen....the other was chosen by Mama...can you guess which is which?                   Happy 4th of July everyone!!  It was a rainy 4th for us Floridians. But with the rain comes cooler temperatures, and I'll take a little wet over sweat any day.   We started the 4th off by sleeping in (which of course still means we were up by 9...) and then cooked out with the Brandt/Simmons clan for lunch. We'd planned to go to the Riverwalk area too take part in the crafts and whatnot but once the girls heard Ava was already at Nana's house...they could not be persuaded to do anything that did not include being with her.   Cousins                  It was overcast and cloudy all day, but we did manage to escape most of the rain. Until the fireworks that is. I'm talking lite...

Wackiness

  It's wacky hat day at PRE today. Only Annabelle felt inclined to participate as it costs 2 feathers. Heaven said it was a "total waste of feathers" and Gavin said nothing as his only hat is a Seminole hat and he's gone rogue lately claiming suppot for Gators. My dear Annabelle made up for both of their lack of sense & style.  She is both Fancy in my large sunhat and Fabulous in her FSU Friday decor.   Doesn't get much better. Happy Friday!
