Oh, what fun! We just had a delightful weekend with some of our very best friends, the Wantucks. They came to Memphis with their 2 sweet, precious little girls for a sleepover and trip to the awesome Memphis Zoo. Here are all the pictures!
It was an uncharacteristically cold day in Memphis on this April Saturday. We had to bundle up! The girls got on the boys shoulders' to see the beautiful giraffes!
To me, these are one of the most beautiful, bizarre creatures at the zoo.
Sweet little Adyson posing by the giraffes!
Keith bundled up Sydney in her soft little blanket.
We even stocked up on hot chocolate (it was sooooo cold for April). Adyson just LOVED it. In fact, for the duration the hot chocolate lasted, she didn't care about the animals.
Then we saw the polar bears. WOW. I've never seen them be so active before. They were in a playful mood! This particular one was swimming like crazy and coming up to the window.
He loved coming up to Adam at the window with his Starbucks!
They are such big, amazing creatures! It was fascinating to be able to press your hand up against his paw on the window. So cool!
Here I am with Tory and the girls. It was chilly, but were were having SO MUCH FUN!
Time for some carousel action! Keith (a.k.a. baby whisperer) hopped on a giraffe with Sydney.
She's just so darn cute. I'm not sure if I can handle it. Her little face makes me melt every time.
They are such cute sisters. Makes me want a set of daughters! Shhh, don't tell Keith that! :)
At lunch, sweet Syd was giving out the smooches. It was adorable. She gave Keith A LOT more than me!!
Can they stay little like this forever?
Train ride through the farm! Adyson and Adam.
At the petting zoo, Ady snuggles up with me for a picture.
She calls me Princess Kendall. She thinks I'm a real princess because she saw my homecoming crown from college at my mom and dad's house. She is convinced I'm the real deal. So funny!

Adyson and the donkey. He was a sweet little sucker. Toby was his name-o.

Planet of the Apes. It's frightening how human the gorillas can be!
Orangutang. Funny pose!
At the end of a long and mostly chilly day, Sydney practically falls asleep with Uncle Keith.
Be still my heart!!
