We were all really excited about going to the zoo during spring break. We had so much going on that week, that we almost didn't get to go. We waited until Friday, even though they were calling for rain. We went almost as soon as they opened, and there was hardly anyone there. It was great! It was like having the zoo to yourself almost. Anyway, one of our first stops was the lorikeets. We've been in there before, but never so early. They were very hungry apparently, and it was kind of overwhelming. Chloe really wanted to hold the food, but I'm glad that I didn't let her. I started out with it, and then after a couple of birds started eating, I gave it to Avery. Then one landed on my head! I wasn't really crazy about that! Then they started fighting while still on Avery's hand, and all I could do is laugh. It was quite comical, especially after we were out of there. Keith said the ladies in there were laughing at us. I'm sure we were quite a sight! After that, the rest of the zoo was pretty uneventful. The weather was great, cloudy and not too cool. We went to the park at the end, and it started misting, but by then we didn't care. The kids had a blast playing in the rain!

Did the tornadoes hit you guys? We are praying for you.
No, thankfully! I think one of them passed by not too far off, but we're ok. It's pretty bad just a few miles north of us though. A lot of people we go to church with live in that area, but I don't know much yet. Thanks for thinking of us, and I'm sure the people affected would appreciate your prayers.
