we celebrated maya's 5th birthday by visiting (mostly) african wildlife at safari west. we huddled into a real safari jeep and toured the amazing grounds and met some pretty awesome critters. it was truly an experience to remember. AND it didn't rain!!! hallelujah!

what an amazing birthday. she so lucky. i like how lots of people are wearing green; very appropriate.
Safari West looks awesome! Happy birthday to Maya, I bet she had a blast. Those cow horns are nuts.
I agree, what a great way to celebrate Maya's birthday! I need to go to this place.
