Let’s go back a few weekends, shall we? I just got my film developed (*gasp* FILM!?!?!) of the fun zoo weekend and Mother’s Day. The zoo was two weekends ago? It doesn’t really matter, because I HAVE PICTURES!
Now, in all fairness, Big Ed doesn’t like his photos shown….so I will show him and me together and then his leg.
Yea, you heard right, now pay attention to the tale!
The Zoo
We went out and about that morning. I felt like shit (damn car sickness…) by the time we finished hunting down yard sales and garage sales and estate sales, but was determined not to ruin our plan — to see the poor innocent caged aminals in the poor recreated outdoor environments at the local animal prison zoo. Big Ed claims he’s all "look at the poor big kitty in the tiny yard" kinda sympathetic and whatnot…claims his exwife refused to take him back to the zoo because of it…. Let me say, I heard not much of that kind of words spewing from his mouth…. Kind of a let down, really…
We got there around one in the afternoon. Walked a LOT. The fresh air rid me of my car sickness (in all honesty, I had thought I’d outgrown it…damn), but my legs were still rather weak and my feet began aching after awhile.
We walked up and down, down and up. The Fort Worth Zoo has this thing going through July 9th…DinoRoars…Robotic dinosaurs hidden among the animals….Figured I’d let LittleOne take pictures of those when she goes later this month, but it was kinda cool (a scavenger hunt for kids–to get them to come to the zoo and see the animals)…
We saw one of my favorites, the zebra. Then we saw my old highschool mascot, the ram. And we also passed by the most laid back dudes ever, the kangaroos!
Had a few pictures of us thrown in there, but none too pretty; it was hot, we were sweaty, and Big Ed just doesn’t like his looks (some bullshit about being too overweight….) so none of those are coming from the zoo. Maybe later
Mother’s Day
We spent Mother’s Day with my family. Partially because his was out of town, partially because I wanted my boyfriend with me (although my family doesn’t know he’s my boyfriend), and partially because it was a fish fry — you just can’t pass up a fish fry!
Before we arrived, my mom told me about a conversation between my brother and my dad:
brother: "So who all is coming today?"
dad: "Your sister and her boyfriend, your uncle and his boys, your grandmother, and Kitten and her….and her….and Big Ed"
*giggle*
So while there, Big Ed met Savannah. I think she likes him, don’t you?
Anyway, this isn’t from mother’s day, but it’s the same outfit I wore…It’s my HNT for this week, from this past weekend at our cookout
Don’t we look good?
