ZOO with Gramie!

On the 19th my mom came to Utah and took Nikki, Mayli, Tori, Natalie, Carson, Spencer, Abby and I to the zoo. We wanted to make sure that we got to see the cat show this time because last time we went it was too packed to see anything. So we went and watched the cat show, where they bring the big cat right in front of you separated by a gate...it was way fun. We were right on the other side of the glass in the front row and I was really worried that Abby would scream with excitement when they opened the doors but she didn't. It's kinda hard to make sure that a 21 month old understands to be quiet so they can do the presentation without interrupting the cats concentration. She did great though! Well afterwards they let the cat back into it's enclosure and we took this pic...the cat was like two feet away from her. She thought it was great! She kept meowing at it!

Abby still has not decided whether or not she likes carousels. Definitely not at first for sure! But as they get going she seems to enjoy them better. She rode on the Jaguar...go figure.

As they were going around I got this pic of Abby petting the "cat." She wouldn't stop meowing at it!

After the bird show Abby and her cousin Mayli donated $5 each so they got to get their pics taken with an eagle. It looks like Abby was the only one that didn't get the memo to look at mommy for the picture! Oh well. She kept her eye on this big bird until her daddy moved her farther away from it!
