Zoo Fun



Public school is off today and tomorrow for Election Day, and so today we headed to the zoo with our good friends Maya, Gracen, Cooper, Evan and Juliana. The kids had a blast. Once we go to the zoo, that is. Getting them to put on their own shoes and jackets so that we could actually leave the house was painful, for all parties involved.



Anyhoo, once we were at the zoo we fed the lorikeets, twice! Those birds were hungry.


We watched the five new baby lion cubs wrestling and tackling each other. It was super cute and reminded us of how much we like to tackle and hug and kiss one another. We saw the new baby flamingos too, which were so gray and fluffy. We also rode the train up to the botanical gardens and back, saw the bird show, spotted "Nemo" and "Dorie" in the reptile house, and climbed all over the animal statues strewn throughout the zoo.



And, Zola rode the carousel for the first time and loved it!

What a great adventure at the zoo! Milo looked as colorful as the lorikeets. Calder is too cute on that statue.
Hooray for Zola on the merry-go-roung!

This looks like a perfect picture for an 8x10 on Oom-Poppa's desk!
So cute.
