Happy Birthday, Mojo

We all took another trip to the Jackson Zoo recently for Zoo Day, which was a celebration of Mojo's birthday. Mojo is an orangutan at the zoo. There was cake (supposedly), but we were too busy taking in the rest of the activities to notice.

Miles was very excited for the petting zoo. He got to pet and talk to a goat and a pig. He enjoyed it immensely, but the animals couldn't seem to care less. Then, we got to witness an impromptu dance-off in the middle of the park. I thought Miles would join in the fun, but he was tired by this point in the day. Still, he enjoyed seeing people bust out some moves.

Along the way, Miles also got to see a bunch of different types of monkeys. He enjoyed waving to the monkeys (or maybe he was humoring us), but I don't think one ever waved back.

My favorite part, was when the Sand Person and Stormtroopers (along with some imperial guards) showed up with Darth Vadar. Miles was terrified of the costumed Zebra and the Atlanta Braves mascot (Homer) we ran into, but seemed really excited about meeting up with most evil force in the galaxy. But, of course, so was his mommy. :)
