Today Payton and I took advantage of the gorgeous San Diego weather and headed to the wild animal park with our friends. What’s great about the wild animal park is that it is literally fifteen minutes from my house and now we have an annual membership so we can go walk the park or zoo whenever we want. It always amazes me how vast and beautiful the San Pasquel Valley is. Below are a few of my favorite pictures from the day.
My very happy baby. Don’t you just love her chubby cheeks and double chin.
Gorillas are always a favorite of mine and Jim’s. One of the first classes we took together as a couple was Anthropology and we had to do a Gorilla observation for three hours at the zoo. Seeing them always beings me back to the good ‘ole days of 2001.
I bought Payton and her friend Chloe matching ‘raffe’s to remember their first meeting and P’s first trip to the park. (Chloe is my dear friend Cassie’s niece. Her mama Kris and her are visiting from Washington state this week).
The last picture of the day. She was an angel all day. Love my sweet baby girl.

Oh I’m so jealous of where you live… I used to love the Wild Animal Park. I lived in SoCal when I was younger & am dying to move back!

It has been so rainy and yucky, but today we got a break with 75 degree weather with another storm rolling in tomorrow. I cannot complain though, I guess this is why people live in SD, even though I love the snow. I would love to live in Georgia, my hubbs works for UPS and they offices here and there so I always joke that we can relocate.
