The Zoo

We finished up June with a great trip to the zoo with my sister and her daughter, my niece.  The heat on Friday did not bother us one bit.  It was so much fun, the kids had a blast and we were able to see so many animals.  My sister had free tickets and that made it extra wonderful.

We have had our share of snake stories from four years overseas so it was nice to see all the snakes at the zoo in cages.  The kids all fed the goats, watched the giraffes get fed, saw the impalas leaping over logs, two brown bears wrestling in the water, played on the playground, and got an ice cream cone from the Dairy store.  It was hilarious to hear Emma at one point tell me to quick get the camera.  When I came over to see what she was pointing at it was a chipmunk scurrying under a bush.  She was so excited to see a chipmunk again.
