Christmas Party Video for Julie and Rob Sweet & All Supporters!

December 25, 2017 by Diana

Our third sponsor for today’s day of sanctuary is Jean Bengston, who gave the gift of sponsoring Christmas in honor of Julie and Rob Sweet.

And what a Christmas it has been! Thank you to everyone who sponsored today and contributed to the fun of the party, including Patti and Chad who volunteered and helped set up the party this morning!

Christmas Party #1 in Honor of Nancy Hedlund

December 25, 2017 by Diana

Molly Adrian is the second sponsor of today’s day of sanctuary for the chimpanzees! She is honoring her mother, Nancy Hedlund and shared this message:

“Christmas Day – my mom would love nothing more than to gift a day of happiness and nourishment for these beautiful chimpanzees. Merry Christmas!!”

Happiness and nourishment abound today!

 

Here is a little preview of their Christmas so far, with more to come, of course!

This photo pretty much sums up Christmas for Jamie. We’ve been talking about how she is the consummate consumer – she loves things! The more, the better. Her friends really came through for her and the other chimps today and sent an abundance of gifts and decorations for the party. So many, that we’ll be having a second party later this afternoon! Here is Jamie looking through one of her new boot books:

If you’ve been following the blog for a bit, you know that food is the biggest source of excitement for Burrito. So, he’s pretty much beside himself when the holidays roll around:

We’ve got a third sponsor-a-day coming up, and we’re working on the video of Party #1 right now. Merry Christmas to those who celebrate!

Christmas Morning is for Laurel Hecht

December 25, 2017 by Diana

Merry Christmas to all of those who celebrate, and happy Monday to those who don’t!

Today, as you can imagine, we have a lot of people who wanted to help celebrate the day with the chimpanzees.

Up first, continuing her years-long tradition, Laurel Hecht was the first to sponsor 12/25/17. It’s an extra-special day for Laurel because it is also her birthday.

So, big thanks to Laurel for sharing her love and celebration with the chimpanzees. Happy Birthday to you!

The chimpanzees will be having an all-day celebration today.

We’re getting the day started with a breakfast of fresh pineapple and oranges (and smoothie being served)

Hopefully that troll isn’t telling Foxie what her presents are…
