Siena Grace Testa turned three on February 23rd and we couldn't be more blessed to have such a wonderful little girl. We invited some of our close friends with kids to join us for a day at the safari zoo park. We prayed that God would bless us with a warm day full of sunshine and laughter, and that's exactly what he gave did!
We arrived about 11am and caught a little train that takes you around the animal park. It is really cool how they have the animals in a large area all roaming free (except they separate the predators for obvious reasons). We saw zebras, giraffes, ostriches, camels, lions, tigers, monkeys, but our favorite animals were the hippos who were "enjoying" the beautiful spring day. Siena now loves to tell everyone that "the daddy hippo got on top of the mommy hippo...that was so funny!"
We took a picnic lunch for everyone. Then we sang to Siena and enjoyed a wonderful birthday cake. Siena even got to ride on a pony! Then we went down toward the entrance to the park where they have a dozen or so little kid amusement park rides. The kids were exhausted but they were having so much fun that they didn't want to stop. Needless to say, they crashed hard in the car on the way home!
Here are a few photos from our day. Enjoy!
