Mother's Day

On Mother's Day we headed to the zoo after Chris made us a great breakfast. I thought it wouldn't be that busy since A) Mom & Me at the Zoo was on Saturday and B) all the church goers would be in church. Well all the church goers were in church so we got stuck with the...well I'll just say it was a VERY colorful crowd. Chris was standing in line and commented that he couldn't believe the conversations he was hearing.

Here is a quick summary of what we saw:
1. LOTS of teen moms! It was like a Bristol Palin-Jamie Lynn Spears high school reunion.

2. A lot of very over weight people. Good for them for walking the zoo but 300+lb, 60yr old women should NOT wear belly shirts!

3. I actually saw a girl, probably no older than 12, get on the scale by the elephants and it read 184! 12yrs old and she weighs 184? What on earth is wrong with her parents???

4. Meth mouths (if you've ever seen anyone who does/did Meth, you know what this means).

5. A lot of people who seem to wander around with no goals, no dreams, no ambitions. It's really quite sad because "it's never to late to be what you might have been".

We still had a great time. Just watching Anna was the best part of all. She walked that zoo from start to finish and never once pooped out.
