going the distance

Trying to chase away the winter blues, unbeknownst to one another, Sloth and Cheetah set a goal to complete the community’s Summer Fun-Run. While crossing the finish line (at very different times) they each found themselves. And then they found each other.
Love comes in many different shapes and sizes. And speeds.

Aw, nuts!

Squirrel and Elephant met at the grocery store. Each were there to buy their favorite nuts. No, not the kinda nuts you’re thinking of. They were there for Circus Peanuts. They met in the candy aisle. It was love at first sight. Aw, nuts!

 Tiger says to Bunny, “I like your fur.” Bunny says to Tiger, “I like your fur.” Then Tiger whispers to Bunny, “But sometimes I get sad.” “And when you do, I’ll always kiss the top of your head,” promised Bunny.

Cupid

 Hummingbird threw a fabulous party, seating Ram and Flamingo next to one another. Flamingo couldn’t stop looking at Ram’s golden curls. Ram had never seen such a pink boa. Okay, Cupid. You’ve done it again.

cocktails

They met during Happy Hour. Bloody Marys for Rooster. Monkey sipped on a Banana Daiquiri. “What do you do”? asked Monkey. “At the crack of dawn I scream each and every morning while the sun comes up.” The next day Monkey bought a set of earplugs and they lived happily ever after.
