That's what River said when we left the zoo. I swear she was having fun while we where there. We got the girls ice cream cones, petted the mama giraffe, saw a baby elephant and even rode the zoo train. What's not to like? River is just melodramatic. When I asked her what her favorite animal was she said, in a very grown up voice, "None of them!"

I love this picture of River and Cameron. You can see how much River adores her daddy.

And sweet Sariah. Over the last few months she has really lightened up, (though in this picture you can't really tell, lol!) she laughs and talks and sings. She says GaMa, Mama, Dada, Biber (which is River), more, boo, hot, and moo. And she loves to do the hand actions to "one little monkey, swinging in a tree..." Perfect at the zoo!

This is a table I picked up at the thrift store and painted. I wish I had the before picture, but it was brown with a big coffee-mug stain on it. Now it's wonderfully turquoise. Or to me it's wonderful. I have an obsession with turquoise lately. What can you do? Cameron is worried everything in our house will end up lime green or turquoise. I think he might be right to worry! ;)
We did have to tighten the strings every once-in-a-while....
Cameron snagged a crawdad for Sariah and River to look at. Pretty cool.
Thanks for the great time everyone!
This is our lovely little garden patch! Joy! Tonight we ate the first radishes out of the garden...heaven I say! 
The crazy family.
These are all the great-grandkids. Hunter, River, Sariah, Halle, Abby and Hendrix.
My parents came to visit our house for Sariah's birthday. Cam and I had to speak in church that weekend, so it was perfect timing. My mom had to spend the whole time out in the hall, because Sariah kept trying to walk up to the pulpit.
Sariah is toddling around, with only two bottom teeth, saying "Mamama" and "Dada da da." She loves stairs, doggies, bread and being outside. When ever she sees a dog she gets REALLY excited, stomps her feet, bounces up and down, points and says 'oh! oh! dogga! dogga!" She's really starting to understand the things we say and is really interested in learning sign language. She signs light, more, cheese, drink, bird, and hat. Tonight we were having pizza for dinner and River was saying, "It's pizza, Sariah. Pizza. PIZZA!" when, I swear, Sariah opened her mouth and said "Pi ZA." It was so cute! Now Cameron wants to tell people that pizza was her first word! I think she's already said 'doggy' and 'baby', but it's hard to say. Sariah loves to play 'chase' where she leaves the room, even though she knows she's not supposed to, until you chase her and she crawls away faster and faster laughing, until she collapses because she can't go any faster. It's so funny. If you say 'Kiss' she gives you a kiss, if you say "hi five" she'll give you a high five. I love this age!
