Jurong Bird Park

Since Sunday is the only day both Ryan and I don't have to work, we usually try to get out of the house and do something early in the day so that we have the rest of Sunday to RELAX! Today, we headed out to Jurong Bird Park. There are birds from all over the world. They even had penguins...warm and cold climate species! They were my favorite!










Scarlet Ibis (there is a store by this name in De Leon so I had to get a picture!)
I really didn't want to post this picture. I look REALLY rough (needless to say) but I knew my mom would be disappointed if there wasn't a picture of her baby girl on the blog. Love you, Mom!










We had to make one last stop by the penguins. Aren't they just the cutest?

Countdown to New Zealand



We are getting very excited about our trip to New Zealand and this is what we've been doing to prepare....





Hiking at Bukit Timah Nature Reserve.


We are going with our friends, Jason and Alaina. The boys will be hunting most of the trip and Alaina and I will be exploring the beautiful South Island. I can't wait to share stories and pictures!

The Lion King

Thanks to my wonderful parents (extra shout out to mom though), Ryan and I were able see The Lion King Musical at the new Marina Bay Sands Theatre. When my mom was here in November they were advertising for The Lion King that started in March and I mentioned that I would really like to go. Being the awesome mom that she is, she remembered and purchased Ryan and I AWESOME tickets for our 1st Anniversary. We went to the matinee last Sunday. I can't say that Ryan loved or even enjoyed it for that matter (he's not one for men dancing in tights. ha.) but he was a trooper and didn't complain once (He loves me.) Unfortunately, we weren't able to take pictures of the amazing costumes so I'll just highly recommend seeing it if it comes to a city near you!
