Like Disneyland In Colorado

What a combination...
the zoo...
and princesses!?
Perfect for Miss Thang!

The Denver Zoo had Zoomily...
which is basically fairy tale night...
which is basically Allikaye heaven.

We enjoyed more carousel rides...
She told her hippo,
"You are a really good hippo!"
after the ride was over.
We rode on the Zoo Train...

Allikaye asked why these creatures had horns
and I said because that's how God made them.
She said, "Oh, thank you, God!"

There were fun performers all over the different areas of the zoo.
I am Creek Indian...errr...Native American.
And I wanted to sound cool to these folks,
so I asked,
"What nation are you from?"
Nation?!
I don't know why I said that!
The guy said,
"I am Blackfoot, and she is from Oklahoma."
Hmmm...pretty sure Oklahoma is a state, not a nation.
But I am a dork for even trying! hehe

Volunteers and workers brought out a lot of the animals
so you could see them up close...
for the princesses, of course!
Here was the Harry Potter section...
Allikaye is playing the game they play...
sorry - not a fan of HP - but it was cute for A.
Oh My!
There were real life princesses there!
Allikaye could not believe it!!
Are you ready?!

Here's Cinderella....and Gus.
(look at the side-eye Allikaye is giving them)
Here is Aurora...Sleeping Beauty...
(I think Alli was a little stunned by her...so was Matt!)hehe
And snow white...with her owl friend...
It was fun to eat dinner at the zoo...
right next to the seals!
They provided the yummy hamburgers and mini corndogs!
Look at this princess...

And last, but certainly not least,
Prince Charming!!!
Notice his cushion-y pecs
and if you could only smell his musk through your computer!

Oh Cinderella...

Hehehe!
It was such a fun event!
Thanks Denver Zoo!
We are so on for next year!
