1st Trip to the Zoo!

Ryan has been taking more and more Fridays off.  They say dentist don't work on Fridays and he always has...but hopefully he will not be for long!  He had today off so we decided to take full advantage and take the kids to the zoo.  At the beginning of the summer we made a summer bucket list and the zoo made the list!  We left first thing when the twins woke up and got to the zoo right when it opened at 9am.  We read a lot of books about animals and it was so fun to see the twins faces when they realized the animals we were talking about!
 Sea Lions were swimming and playing together!
 The Polar Bear put on a nice show!


 "That...that....that!"  G was loving all the animals!
 There was a short version of the Rio movie 4D playing.  G made it for about 1 min....E loved it and stayed the whole time with the glasses on of course!

 G also wouldn't ride the carousel....but you know E loved it!
 Monkeys!

 The elephant was so close to us!


 The kids loved the giraffee!


 After the zoo we stopped by The Table for lunch and some caffeine!
 G and E loved the hummus!

 The ride home was going great until about 15 min away from home.  They were so tired and ready for a good nap!  We looked back and G was crying and E was using her head rest to cover her ears! hahaha!
So glad we got such good weather and were able to go as a family and see all the amazing animals and creatures at the zoo.  Next on our summer bucket list....the airport to watch planes!

  1. We went to Asheboro. It is too hot this time of year for Columbia! We lucked out with weather, crowds and the animals were all out!
