On the zoo trip with Gram and Robi they generously made sure that all the kids got to ride on the camels that were available that trip.
I think this was the first trip where the camels were available.
Newbie especially seemed completely full of peace and joy to be riding on the camel.
I’m very thankful for the time we shared attacking the zoo this summer with Gram and Robi.
You see, 11/30/14 we lost Robi.
A musical master, entertainer, parter, dad… I’m sad that Redflare and I now have this loss of a parent in common too.
Along with Gram and Robi came cousin Z.
Of the younglings, it’s uncanny how similar looking Superman and Z are.
This post was scheduled for Little Miss’ birth minute.
It’s hard to believe sometimes that this super smart and pretty Little Miss here is eleven now.
This sweet, helpful, scientific mind of a princess is a unique balance between what interests her boys and stereotypical “girly” interests.
It’s an honor to be both her daddy and her friend.
The borrowing of the hat definitely seemed to help break the ice with Newbie. While at the park she quite enjoyed playing with Gram and Robi.
Happy anniversary my dear Redflare.
I don’t think I’ve featured pictures from our wedding on the blog in the past, so now seemed like a perfect opportunity at least for a couple.
I’m not sure why the pictures are getting a little jumbled from the summer, for instance Redflare’s parents came to visit prior to us going to the zoo with Uncle Josh (and clearly before we were done with the basement floor) but they’re still great pictures.
Newbie, for instance, was quite taken with Gram’s hat… to the point of taking it! 😉

While playing Super Smash Bros for Wii U I was able to catch Little Miss as Zero Suit Samus and give her a nice Smash…
Samus didn’t seem to appreciate it much. :p
So how is the game?
It’s wonderful.
As we left the zoo, Superman was thrilled at what we found in the parking lot: Bumblebee!
Superman insisted we snap a quick picture next to the car. The younger two were too excited to look at the vehicle rather than look up at the camera. That’s okay.

The little sale kiosk was empty so they took a break from walking for a moment and perched. It was a long, good day out at the zoo with Uncle Josh so taking some time to catch their breath was welcome.
