Anchorage Zoo

While we were at the movie, Uncle Tim and Auntie Joy took grateful Jillian to the zoo.

They rode in style! :)

At the zoo, they showed the map to Jillian and let her pick which animal to see next. She would point to the picture and off they went! I thought that was such a cool idea!

Jillian's favorite was the snowy owl!

Dall Sheep are awesome!

I was only able to upload this picture rotated this way...I'm not sure why. Its a little harder to see, but if you look closely, you can see there is a black bear in the corner. I'm told he was sticking his tongue out of the bars to gather food....and this cracked Jillian up. :)

I love this picture....Jillian looks so happy, so full of joy! :) She loves spending time with the Burson family and is missing them so much now that we are home in Hawaii. While we were visiting, Jillian was able to hug and kiss each Burson before bed most nights. On the second night at home, Jillian and I were getting ready to read books before bed and she just started sobbing. Thankfully she was able to tell me what was wrong...she was missing the Burson's. So we called Alaska and Tim, Joy, Josh and Luke all got on the phone to say "good night Jillian". It totally made her night and she was able to go right to sleep. Thanks guys!
