This past Sunday we met our friends Don and Julie (and their little boy DJ) at the zoo in Waco! Don is a college friend of mine and he now lives in Austin. I am SO embarrassed it has taken us this long to get together, now that he and his beautiful family are only an hour away!Anyway, we had so much fun. While we were getting ready that morning we said to Chase, "Do you want to go to the zoo?" His eyes completely LIT UP and he just started running around saying, "Zoo! Zoo! Zoo!" We were shocked he remembered what the zoo was! It had been months since we had been to one. At any rate, he was totally excited. Then he met DJ, who is about 6 months older, and they were instant buds. At one point DJ grabbed Chase's hand to walk with him, and another time he was encouraging Chase to come inside a teepee with him (he didn't win that one)! In the photo above they are checking out the leopards, I believe (a.k.a. the "big kitty cats").
Don and Julie, thanks for the great outing idea. We can't wait to get together again!

Doesn't it amaze you what they remember now? We saw giraffes and fed them crackers over 2 months ago...and Sarah still squeals "Cracker!" whenever she sees a giraffe.
