Saturday we took a family outing to the Oakland Zoo. The day was so beautiful and warm. I can't believe the weather this year. It's hardly seemed like we've had a winter, which makes me a little nervous for the consequences that will come later in the year due to lack of precipitation. Anyways, we had fun as a family checking out the animals. Preston's favorite part of the zoo is the elephants. He could stand and watch them forever. We had a great time until Preston found a leaf and was excitedly running to show us when he slipped in some gravel and landed flat on his back. He was crying pretty hard and then Nate and I discovered he was bleeding pretty badly too. He must have landed on a rock. It was hard to get a good look because of the matted blood in his hair. We took him to the first aid area hoping they could help us clean him up a bit so we could get a better idea at how bad his cut was. Luckily it looked worse than it was and he calmed down quickly. We ended by riding the Merry-Go-Round and his head wound seemed to be forgotten.
