A Zoo Trip

We were able to go to the zoo with some friends.  It was a beautiful day.  I don't remember if this was September or October.

Summer Zoo Trip with Cousins - More Phone Pics

While my niece and nephew were visiting, we were able to meet up with some other cousins at the zoo. 

Zoo Crew

The boys had another crazy early release day from school, so we grabbed a few friends and headed to the zoo. We were able to meet up with some other friends later in the day.
The Zoo Crew - note Nate's eyes



Chase's buddy was so very sweet to Nate. He would lift Nate up, talk to Nate, and carry Nate. He always had his eye on Nate and would ask where Nate was if Nate was out of sight. All around good kid.












Ice cream break


Boys always have to pretend that they are being eaten by the alligator. It is hysterically funny every.single.time :)

Being Spoiled by the Weather - Zoo Day!

On Tuesday, the big boys went back to school. The cousins were still in town, and the weather was still scrumptous, so we headed to the zoo.

My nieces
My nephew ran around really quick to sneak in the picture - he is a hoot.

I don't know what this look is, but it scares me. It scares me A LOT.
Looking at the lion
My nephew, Ben, loved the birds!

So did Nate
So did my niece, Emily
Lots of bird pictures. Sorry about that. Okay, not really. I like them, and it IS my blog ;)



Emily liked to dump the birds off of her stick

My niece, Hannah, did NOT like the birds. See her clinging to her mom in the background?

She did smile for a picture.




It was a great day. Thank you God for the beautiful weather.
