At The Zoo











The weather has begun to get cooler. We decided to head over to our favorite zoo and take in the sights. We again didn't take the stroller and it was so much more fun! The kids had more freedom to move around and see what they wanted. Den and I didn't have to worry about leaving sight of the stroller or getting stuck in the crowds.

We got to watch the elephants have a bath! Colin and Tatum climbed right up front to watch and laughed as they sprayed them down and gave them treats. Colin loved the giraffes and even got a little giraffe at the gift shop. He carried it around the whole day. Tatum got a stuffed elephant and still sleeps with it.

The lions were out and we even saw 2 bald eagles. The flamingos are always fun! The cow was out at the farm area and Tatum pet the sheep.

On the way back, the kids got tired and wanted to be carried. Tatum was asleep before Dennis and I made it to the car!

Later, we went over our neighbors for a cookout. The kids enjoyed hanging out with their friends and playing in the swing set.
