Birmingham Zoo

Compared to other Zoos I've been to, the Birmingham Zoo seemed to focus a lot on cats and birds (not saying I don't like either of those things). They classified the cats as "Predators" however I thought they were all adorable and wanted to take them home. 

My sister tried to get me to convince an employee to trade this adorable monkey for $20. Needless to say that employee thought we were bananas (Funny pun!)  

This peacock was the 1st thing we saw when we walked in, I adored it for 2 reasons : 1. It was a rebel and decided it wasn't meant to be in confined to one area 2. It matched my hair.

The only other Zoo that had a Red Panda was the Zoo in Atlanta, however when we'd gone they stayed hidden, so I was very glad that I was finally able to see them. Aren't they adorable?

Sorting through hundreds of photos is really no fun, especially since I have a terrible system. Instead of adding the date like a normal person I add folders to my desktop like "Rave" or "Zoo" which is ridiculous , considering both of those things happen fairly often. Anyways, I have sorted through the zoo photos. Mack and I drove to Columbia, SC to the Riverbanks Zoo, which is always fun because I LOVE Columbia. There are so many memories we have there (one being that we almost had to move there for his school.. luckily we found alternatives)! Basically I'm saying this city is awesome! 

What you love.

I've taken many deep breaths over the past few days. The Wall is a very hard thing to conquer. I decided to take some time to just relax (something i don't think I've done since our Disney vacation). So after several walks around the neighborhood, and the destruction of several home decorating magazines, the Wall has just barely been knocked down.
