New addiction

Trader Joe's has done it again. These "Dark Chocolate Covered Chile Spiced Mangos" are to DIE for. Last week I ate an entire container in one day, ouch! I MUST control myself this time.

Noah’s Ark at the Skirball

After hearing about the Noah's Ark exhibit at the Skirball for months we finally got the chance to visit today. It was SO fantastic. Curly had a blast running around making weather, climbing all over the ark and playing with the animals. We could have played for hours there was so much to do. I highly recommend this exhibit to anyone with children, it's something you'll never forget.

All the animals are life sized and made out of recycled material.

As you can kind-of see from the picture, we were in the ark and the animals are all around us; this one is hanging from the rafters

Climbing up the cargo net to explore the ark.

This snake has a tube in it's mouth so you can talk to someone at the other end.

Petting the turtle. She loved the bouncing head.

Favorite part...cleaning up the animal "poop"

I really wish I could have captured the experience better, it is such an amazing place. There is no doubt we will be going back many times in the years to come.

Best hiding spot

Curly loves to hide from me; sometimes she's being naughty and sometimes she's just having fun. A few days ago I realized she was missing and I spent over 5 minutes looking for her, which is forever in mommy time. Luckily I found her safe and sound in her closet just eating goldfish crackers. Funny girl.
