Joey's Birthday Present

My hubby Joey turned 60 last month and when I began thinking about what to give him for his birthday I drew a complete blank! Then I thought, what about a new puppy? No, he did not want another puppy, clothes, car, I was running out of options, SO,....
I bought him a visit to feed the giraffes at the Fort Worth Zoo. You stand next to the enclosure with these huge tree branches, reach them up where they can reach them and then they strip the leaves off of the branches!  You can't tell by these photos but there were 7 of them. The dominant mothers just made sure they got most of the snacks! Such a fun day!
