Zoo Day

We've had the stomach bug floating around our house this past week. We're pretty sure everyone is well now and decided to go to the zoo today in order to celebrate and get out in the fresh (sometimes stinky) air. We saw lots of animals and had a great time.








Jack was the keeper of the map today. He would pull it out and tell us where to go next.


Marshall took Jack and Anna to ride the train . . .

while Sam watched from the sidelines enjoying some puffs.



Waving at Daddy and Sam.




Eventually we rode the tram over to the Botanical Gardens and enjoyed our picnic lunch.

Sam was just excited to get out of the stroller!



She's posing, not throwing a fit.


On our way out, we plunked the kids down on a bench and tried to get just one good picture.




Once we realized the bench wasn't going to work, we tried to change it up and put them on the ground. Sam just crawled away!

Anna tried to bring him back, but at that point, we knew it was hopeless.





We had a fun day!

Your family is precious!! I love the one of Anna trying to get Sam back into the picture and the one of Jack climbing on Marshall's back on the bench. Priceless!
