Zoo Trip


We have had such beautiful days down here that we decided to take Daddy to the zoo. We have a family pass and the boys and I have gone several times but Mark had never been. It was a wonderful day and even Mark had a good time. We also went out to eat and stopped by a yarn store to buy yarn for me to make a baby blanket for some friends of ours that are expecting their first baby. Jenny (the mom to be) was the one who threw me my very first baby shower over 11 years ago when I was pregnant with Alex!
Brothers - Ethan & Alex
Ethan's favorite - the frogs!

Proud Peacock
Zacy and a goat.
Look close - can you see this guys buck teeth?
Ethie looks so tall here.
Daddy and his boys.
You can get really close to the animals here.

Alex seeing how far he can jump compared to wild animals.
Here's Ethan's jump!
It's kind of scary how close you can get to these guys. You could stick your finger right through here!
Pretty pictures of a beautiful day.



This is me pulling Zac off a workers vehicle. He was ready to take off when I grabbed him!!
Blurry shot but had to add it to make the day complete - a ride on the Merry- Go-Round!


I take a picture here every time we go. It's amazing how fast my boys are growing.

That's one chubby peacock! LOL at the buck teeth. Looks like such a fun day. I love going to the zoo. The nearest one is 2 hours away but we try to go at least once per year.
