I was going to write about my trip to the Zoo with Tanners class but, then I read Tanners version. I decided why should I write about it if he already did. He saved me a lot of work! By the way, Tanner still does not care about spelling. "It's just my grade, Mom!"

| Momma Elephant. The zoo keeper is checking her teeth. I like her fat pink tongue. |
Little Zuri, the baby elephant, is now 2 years old. I wrote about her in 2008
here. She is still the cutest thing on the block even though she weighs 14,000 lbs. And, she is already earning her keep by standing on her
nose mouth thing.

| The zoo keepers promised that they bathed her this morning. |

Unlike the giraffe poop, the tigers sleeping together grossed out the one of boys. He exclaimed, "That is disgusting!" I told him that it Tanner was as cute and furry as a those tigers, he would snuggle up to him.
My favorite part of the whole thing was the boys love for the small animal building. This is my favorite part of the zoo and yes, I know it smells. I have never gone to the zoo with someone that loved to look into all those small cages and see the critters as much as I do. Because of this, I over looked the moment when the giraffe pooped and all three of them exclaimed " That was awesome!" before running downstairs to get a better view of the poops exit.
