Simple Pleasures: Giraffes!

This may seem like a strange simple pleasure.  I love giraffes.  I love them even more now that I've gotten to "meet" them in person!  You see, my soon to be sister-in-law is a giraffe keeper at the zoo.  She was sweet and when she and my brother came to visit this summer, arranged for us to go "backstage" to feed the giraffes at our local-ish zoo!  How cool is that?  You can probably see the sweat dripping off of us - it was 90* and humid before noon that day!

Giraffes have been on my mind a lot lately. First of all, Sis-to-be is busy planning the wedding. The giraffes will be at the rehearsal dinner! Also, I was randomly placed in the Giraffe Tribe with the SITS girls  Tribe building event. Haha!
