Elephant Brunch... Yum!

To start off our day, Samantha tried to play doctor first with Ali, then with Mama. She was a great doctor, although Ali didn't like the medicine- hee hee. With me, she checked my boom-boom and my ears. She kept telling me "It's ok" and "I get water for your throat". She made me close my eyes when she checked me heart beat. 


We missed the elephant brunch last year, so Mama was prepared this year! We went early and found a great spot behind a stroller, which became even better when the daddy left taking the stroller and opening up some room~ Then we had first row viewing! It sure is tiring and complicated holding Samantha and trying to take pictures. The tightness of the crowd reminded me of Mardi Gras!
It was really cool watching the four elephants chow down on a table full of apples, bananas and pears. Sammie was so excited just watching, but upset that she couldn't feed them herself. Afterwards, we high tailed it to the back stage gate to watch them put the elephants away and we got a glimpse of the camels and some mini ponies. Sammie wanted to see the baby camel, but there wasn't one.
 
Watching the el's go back in.
Camels
After nap, in honor of the elephants, we made some delicious elephant sugar cookies! YUM!
 
 

After taking care of Ali and wanting to feed and ride the elephants, I asked Samantha if she wanted to be a zoologist. She said no. Maybe a vet, then?
