Birthday present
Guess what I got for my birthday...?!?!?!?!?!?!
A... gaboon viper!!!!!
 Well, ok, admittedly not at our house, haha, but some friends of mine adopted one from our favourite place, Chester Zoo! I received a certificate of adoption, some complimentary tickets to visit the zoo, a quarterly magazine, complimentary adopter -day tickets, and will have my name on the plaque on the gaboons' enclosure! What a fantastic present! I love it! Will post some pics of our "new snake" when we go visit

LOL  Ah I'm not going anywhere for a long while!.. At least not until I get my very own gaboon right here!  For now I'll stick with my adoption and with my gaboon sculpt that Lauren made me

Here are some pics of the three sculpts Lauren made me, inc. the gaboon - thought I'd make them even cuter by having Rose and Cherry pose with them

That's such a cool present! I'm so happy for you.
I hope you can get some pics of your adopted gaboon to post here.
The sculptures look great!
