Last Sunday after church, David had lots of meetings, so the children and I headed home alone after a delicious lunch at church with the intent of taking naps. However, on the way to the car, I made the executive momma decision that it was just way too pretty of a day to spend it indoors. So, we headed over to the zoo for the day! The children were so excited!
There's a new baby alligator that wasn't at the zoo the last time we went, can you see him? So cute!
We arrived at the zoo just in time for an animal exhibit, how fun!
Even Story participated! I was so proud :)
Can you see how beautiful it was outside?
The children got to take their picture with the bird of prey. I didn't do a great job of getting them all in, ha!
After the exhibit, I got a ring pop for each of the children. The animals were drawn to them! Look at this little guy! He came right over to us!
We bought food for the ducks and swans.
Can you spot the jaguar sunning?
You cannot tell from this particular picture, but the flamingos were just a squawking at each other!
The tiger was on the move! She even came over to get a drink from the water. Most of the times when we visit, it's in the dead middle of summer, so she's barely moving at all.
Cuties!
After walking through part of the zoo, we went for a ride on the carousel.
I don't know what makes it so special, but my children love it!
Even this handsome boy!
Story was so big and rode right by herself.
After the carousel, we headed over to Africa and to the petting zoo.
And we saved the best for last! A ride on the train!
I had such a fun day with these cuties!
We loved seeing our church on the train ride.
When we finished up at the zoo, we headed over to the park to play for a little while. And then it was time to head home to meet Daddy.
I also let the children get in the hurricane machine. I love this video of them! So much excitement on their little faces. And please, oh please, notice Summer's awesome dance moves. She gets her groove from her daddy, ha!
