absolutely positively beautiful....

 

...an amazing day for...the ZOO!  70 and sunny, just gorgeous...me with Achilles...

Achilles and Rhys loved the penguins...

Achilles was my little buddy today....

This fish!  cute or ugly? cannot decide

Achilles loves the huge turtles...

Camille, wondering why she even came, as we passed by the spiders and other assorted insects....

He liked the rattlesnake.

Rhys just liked everything...Kathryn enjoyed her day too.

They came here for a visit afterward, and I made dinner...chicken and gravy, homemade mashed potatoes, stuffing, Brussel sprouts, cranberry sauce, and brown and serve rolls...

Paul fixed the oven tonight, yay!  The girls are all here, and it's too distracting to write right now...
