What a wonderful day.  After cranking out some school this morning, we were off for an afternoon at the zoo.   It was perfect weather for the zoo....not too hot, not too cool.  The animals all seemed to like it also, as they were quite active.   Today's favorite was a baby orangutan who was in a very playful mood. 

Here is an adorable picture of an orangutan.  This wasn't the one we say but is just as cute  :-)

We also really enjoyed the monkeys and the prairie dogs.  We could watched them for hours! 

Here is a cute picture.  Again, these aren't the ones we saw, but just as fun and cute! 

Spring is in the air and we are all excited.  Winter is fun, we LOVE the snow, but spring is so exciting once it gets here.  We spent hours, the other day, cleaning out the garden areas getting ready for planting.  In the next week, or so, we'll get the lettuce, spinach, broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage going.  Nummy!  Can't wait.
