Olivia had a fun time with the Knight family in San Diego over the weekend. She visited her great grandparents and her great aunt and uncle. She flew down with her grandparents and met Spencer and Julian, who had driven to San Diego via the coast.
One of the highlights of her trip was a trip to the San Diego zoo, where she saw pandas, giraffes, elephants, and hippos (her favorite.)
One of the downsides of the trip occurred while they were looking at the Desert Rat exhibit. One of Olivia's shoes fell off and fell into the rat cage. Oops. As people familiar with Olivia know, she LOVES her shoes. From the second the shoe fell into the cage, she cried 'Shoe.' She was so inconsolable that Spencer had to carry her kicking and screaming 'Shoes, Shoes' from the park (apparently, 1.5 miles back to their car in the parking lot.) Poor Spencer is exhausted from carrying her with one hand and pushing the stroller with the other. (Too bad he didn't think of leaving the stroller with Julian and the other kids until he was 1/2way out of the park.)

So sad! Like the time you lost your shoe on stone mountain in Georgia, except that you weren't half as attached to your shoes.
NOT a desert rat. A capybara! Poor bastards. Surely dead now from eating the rubber from Olivia's shoes.
