Abilene Zoo

Jed managed to get one day off for spring break so we headed to a zoo near lubbock. We spent the night in Abilene and went swimming in the hotel pool. Hazen is a great swimmer and loved to jump off the edge. He really liked the warm hot tub. He kept going under and blowing bubbles. Hazen did so good to sleep in his own bed and slept through the whole night! The zoo was great too. We saw some really unique animals. The giraffes were great because they gave you crackers to feed them on a bridge that went over their pen. One reached up and grabbed a cracker right next to hazen. He also liked the rhino, zebra, monkey, and leopard. However, the creepy crawler room was by far hazen's favorite. He loved the snakes, lizards, and spiders. I was a little creeped out. The drive home was nice with a sleeping little boy and some huge windmills out our window. I had to work the next day, and when I came home Hazen had a new pet, and a new haircut. Jed said they were having a really good father/son day and so he went and bought hazen a lizard because after the zoo, hazen kept saying lizard (or snake) pet. Well, now hazen has a little lizard in his room. He really does like him, especially when he eats crickets and shows his pink tongue. I don't really want to talk about it....
