Father's Day at the Dallas Zoo!

We got there super early but it really didn't matter it was FREAKING HOT! We we're there for about 4 hours, sweating through it all. Note to self---Zoo's are better during the fall or early Spring!!
These little guys we're really cute....



Next we moved on to the Gorillas....

A few of these Gorillas were like 58 years old, crazy, huh??
They have a huge area to roam around so we decided to go around to the back to get a closer look, and boy did we.....


Check these out. we we're like right there....in his face.
At this point I snapped the camera and then grabbed Max....all of us were freaked out except Max he was hitting the window.....ughhhhhh my heart was racing.

Max is the biggest Daddy's Boy right now...really cute!!!




Time to jump on the train and rest our feet---in the heat.....

This chimpanze hung out way up in the tree I think most of the time we were there....
Downtown views while on the train...
Max almost 16 months....

The Children's Zoo has a great area to cool down at....the kids loved it


These guys we're fighting the whole time.....especially the ones in the back....
The 6 main one's in the picture we're like attacking each other, I would to standing in crap the whole day in like 100 degree weather.....
Night Night!! We had a great day with our Daddy....WE Love you Matthias!!

Football Football Football!!!! American Football that is....

"Lets go ROMO"...clap clap clap clap clap...

The Couch.....
The computer....
Fantasy Football...The T.V.
The remote....and our new football fan. Ava loves football and even got mad at us when we switched for a moment to the US Open. So funny!!

I remember the first year my husband was introduced to American football it was 2004. I mean he knew football and had friends who played against the American soldiers on the base in Ulm. But he himself never played. He wasn't to excited about it and really could care less about watching a game. The next year, 2005 he showed a little bit more interest in Pro football as opposed to College ball, the complete opposite of me. 2006 was his first year attempt at Fantasy Football while learning more players and all positions and their responsibilities. I remember the first Sunday after the Super bowl thinking, "FINALLY A SUNDAY WITH NO FOOTBALL" Don't get me wrong I LOVE FOOTBALL SEASON. But I LOVE watching my favorite teams.....TEXAS TECH and the COWBOYS, not ever freaking game there is to watch. I like watching the big games too, but not every freaking team. Catch my drift!!!

So 2007, Saturday was lots of fun, waiting for Tech to play and watching the other College teams play....I'm a college football lover...so good for me!!! Then, SUNDAY gets here and the television, the remote, the computer, and the couch become my husbands only necessities.....from 11am till 11pm. I got play by play updates on his Fantasy Football team and tried to show some interest early on. By the end of the night I was into it to only because he told me if he wins the league, he gets $800.00. UGHHHHHHHHH, he's AMERICANIZED!!! Good or bad? I'm sure you all can relate.....
Fall 2008 has arrived, WELCOME to the Gerlich's
