the many emotions of asparagus

so. 
last week. 
the zoo.
i took my camera. 
then came home and uploaded the photos. 
and realized that they went back to december. 
oops.
again. 
i will try to spend the next week or so highlighting some of those to catch you up to speed on the last 6 months of our lives via photo. 
let's start with early december, shall we?


if a picture is worth a 1,000 words, then here are 6,000.
i'm just exactly sure what they are saying. . .

it seems to me that the general 16-word summary would be: 


i think i can. 
i know i can. 
oh no, i can't. 
oh yes, you will.
