MONKEYS SEEING MONKEYS....

`

Guess what? I went to the zoo!  YaY!  I think it was June 20th.  Our friends from Jersey came down to visit us.  Matt, Andrew, and Katie.  They are awesome friends, and we don't get to see them very often usually only once a year at the home school conference, so it was really nice to see them again.  :)

When they got here we hung out around the house, went for a walk, visited the horses, and all that good stuff.  Then we all went back inside, and listened to Andrew play piano... who was amazing!  You would not believe how great it was if I told you, you'd have to hear it for yourself.  He really got me to actually thinking I might want to start learning more about music!  And that is a big jump for me! lol!  Then Matt did some stuff on the piano for us too, which was equally as awesome!  It was all jazzy and blues and stuff.  It was so cool, Then Zach brought out his electric guitar and him and Matt just improvised and played, it was really cool, like you could feel the floor vibrating, and you were just part of the rhythm.  Musicians are so cool! haha, really they are, I really respect them for what they do.  You have to work hard to be good at anything, and music doesn't come naturally to me, like I can carry a tune in a bucket, but not enough to sing to a big group!  haha.  But it was really cool, and I was going to add little short clip I took of them playing... only this stupid blogger thing wont let me!!!!!  So you will have to live with out.. I'm sorry.  :( 

We found out that Matt had never been to the zoo, :O *gasp* .  So we decided that is what we must do, because we could not believe that some one of his age had never seen all the wonderful animals that are there.  We had a great ride up, Katie had never played any of those MARSH (or MASH) or matchmaking games before, so me and Clarissa showed them to her, and of course we also did them to ourselves and Zach and Andrew, which was amusing! lol!  Those games are SOOO retarded, but kinda fun every once in a while, especially for a good laugh.  :)

Me, Zach, Andrew, Clarissa and Katie all drove up in the van, and Matt and Joce drove up in Matt's car.....  Now since Joce is never going to read this blog I feel fine in stating that Me and Andrew have been putting our heads together ever since the conference, to see if we could get Matt and Joce together!  They are perfect for each-other, in-fact MAtt is so good Joce doesn't even deserve him, as much as I love my sister, I must admit that.  Any ways, so at the conference we got them on a date even, and so 60% of the reason we actually had them over here to visit us was to get Matt and Joce to hang out again.  Any was... so we made sure they were in the same car... and then at the zoo.. well we had a great time.  :)

We went to the elephant house, I love elephants, but we go there first cause they are Jo's (Jocelyn) Favorite!  Yeah MAtt and Joce were totally hitting it off.  Me and Andrew were so happy, we hardly had to plan anything!  They would walk away from the rest of us, bonk shoulders and steal each other's phones, and just flirt, which was really great.  *sigh*  Me and Andrew were so proud of ourselves..... we went ballistic over one certain picture we took..... If Jo saw it she would kill me!  haha!  Check it out!  YOO HOO!!!!!! owe owe baby!

Any ways... mushy stuff aside......  The zoo was great, we saw all the animals, except for the big cats, cause just as we went they took them inside, cause the zoo was closing, but oh well.  We hung out around the ground hogs for a while, and took some silly pics! lol!  Yeah Here is Zach fishing for ground hogs.... the new and improved way! lol!  :)

Andrew was taking pictures all day long of us all, 

which was fun.    :)  And then we all went to a little bread and chocolate restaurant, which was good.  Andrew's first time having moldy cheese, and he LIKED IT!  yay.  Yeah, then we went to the temple, just to walk around, then we said good bye!  :(   But the day was so fun we planned another to be on the 18-19..... And I admit me and Andrew did have a little something to do with that! haha!  lol!  I'm so going to get in trouble some day, either that or Jo will bless me, who knows!  lol!  But I had a great time!
