…You’ll see what I mean when you see the pictures below!
We just got home from a wonderful, sunny week in Phoenix, Arizona visiting Greg’s Mom and family. High 70′s and low 80′s all week…it was absolute bliss! The gorgeous mountains, cacti, sunshine were all refreshing and beautiful sights. One of the highlights of the trip was an African style safari ride through the desert where we had some up close and personal encounters with some giraffes, zebras, camels, and other African wildlife. It was unlike any zoo I have been to, as we were able to feed the giraffes and camels right out of our hands, and be within 10 feet of a heard of zebras! It was absolutely amazing! 
This is my new friend “Pilgrim” the giraffe, walking along in front of a beautiful blue mountain scape…
Well HELLO Pilgrim, nice to meet you!
You want this carrot, you say?
Woah! Back it up Pilgrim! This lens isn’t for licking!
Pilgrim making himself at home on the safari bus…
And giving the tour guide a great, big, sloppy, SMOOCH!
A mama zebra scoops up the cookies we threw to her, and shows off her gorgeous stripes!
Isn’t Mother Nature incredible?
Ever seen a zebra smile? Me either! “CHEESE!”
Me hand feeding him a yummy carrot…how freakin’ cool!
Well, that’s all for now. I just had to share the up-the-nostril-giraffe-shots…you don’t get that view everyday!
As far as crafting goes, I have little to share. I wanna get my hands dirty this week though for sure! I’ll be back soon! Stay WARM!
