Roos-N-More

It was Father and Sons last weekend, May 14 and 15th, so Spencer, Sam and Dave took off to Warm Springs for their fun. Ali and I headed to Fashion Show Mall. Earlier that day Ali got to see the Maturation video at school, so in celebration we went to Dillards where our friend Delicia "Sister Coupe" air brushed our face and made us feel really pretty. Then we went shopping and ate some yummy food. On the way home we got a video, Band Slam. We got some snacks, put on the video, and while the previews were playing, we painted each others toe nails -we looked pretty from head to toe.;o) Then we sat on the couch and watched our fun movie. It was such a great evening -loved it Ali! Let's do it again next year. The boys had fun too, playing Steal the Flag, Tag, not sleeping, and swimming, swimming.

Sam and his buddy Aiden have had it nice this year. Twice a week they get together and play, usually Tuesday and Thursday from 10 until about 3, one day at Aiden's and the other at Sam's.
They start off their day at swimming lessons and have become quite good little swimmers -getting ready for summer -woohoo!

Today, May 22, we went to a really fun zoo in Moapa, called
Roos-n-More. We loved it. Here's a bunch of pictures:
Baby Monkey, King Kong

Dwarf Donkey, Oprah

The monkey, Caico, jumped on my back for hugs -it was windy.

Porcupine, Racer X

Lots of Kangaroos



Holding a Joey, baby Kangaroo

A Zebra, Razbe, and a Zdonk, Eeyore, which is a cross between a donkey and a zebra.

Emu

The Sloth was so intriguing to watch.





Cute Otter Snork

Loved the Lemurs

Notice how he's sitting with his legs up on the log.

This one has a baby clutched on tight -very protective.

This monkey, Caico, was so cute and social. He kept jumping on our backs and hanging on us -so cool. Guess what Spencer thinks he wants?

This is a Honey Bear named Dune.



A Bearcat named Frito.
This was another favorite, a 6 week old baby Red Ruffed Lemur, Treelo. We were the last ones there so they let us hold him which they told us was a privilege not many people got.





Spencer's in love.

We had a super duper time there. The owner was so great to answer all our questions and share her great animals with us. We really recommend going there, not very often you get to hold and pet exotic animals. Spencer and Ali are already planning our next zoo trip. Thanks Roos-n-More!
