Going to the Zoo

While we have been to several zoos over the last few years, we haven't actually been to our local zoo since before Alexa was born. Pretty sad, huh? Our library has a new program where you can rent a DVD about the zoo, return it, and then receive a family pass to the zoo. So we took advantage of that to go to the zoo for free today. And everyone knows how much I like free things.

Despite the weird looks, they really did have fun at the zoo, I promise.

Since admission was free, we splurged and spent the $12 for everyone to ride the train and the carousel.


Caleb really wanted to ride the tiger.

After the zoo, we had a picnic lunch at the park. Then we planned to head home for naps, but a certain baby girl fell asleep in the car, refused to nap when we got home, and was grumpy for the rest of the day. Oh well, it was still a fun day at the zoo!
