A zoo trip...

A recent family trip to the zoo.


A rare moment of sibling unity and love....



Did I mention rare? How about fleeting? At least no one is screaming here, just climbing and not listening to me like normal. Okay, so honestly, I let them climb on that rock and right after this photo I went over and stood behind Katie just in case...and YES the rock is on the pathway side of that rope.


Discovering the animals that we hardly ever see...except on our various zoo and aquarium trips that is.


Umm, this is a "statue" and she had to pet it like she did the animals in the petting zoo. I believe she ended up a wee bit confused.


and a wee bit taken aback. Well, the photo right after this one that I took she is laughing her little head off because she found this HI-LAR-I-OUS.


an even RARER photo of us two.


Our favorite animal of the day...that is Dh's and mine. Katie liked this weird bird thing, Samuel liked the monkeys, and JM...I think he liked...wait...we didn't see any lions, he can't claim the lions were his favorite of the day....I'll get back to you on that one!

Those are much cooler favorite animals... the husband loves the lemurs. Seriously - who the heck loves lemurs?

Great pictures. I love the one of all three of your children. My favorite is the one of Katie not too sure of the animal with its mouth wide open.

Sounds like a fun day! ... We haven't been to the zoo since November. I want to get there this summer though, because we're getting a new section with lions, cheetas, african wild dogs, and a couple other smaller animals. I can't wait to see it! :D

I know that zoo and was there after the wedding! That rope playground thing makes me crazy though. We never got past it. Never saw a single animal other than the parrot and some random birds.
