Another Fun Day at the Zoo

Well we bought an annual membership to the zoo a few weeks ago and thus far we are making good use of it!  This is the second Friday morning zoo trip this month and we had such a fun time with our friends Ms. Julie, Caroline and Lauren.  Usually when we visit the zoo we see all of the animals first and we are often tired and ready to go before we get a chance to visit the zoo playground, carousel, etc.  Well yesterday we started with the zoo playground, carousel ride, train ride, and petting zoo and then we checked on all of our favorite animals.  It was such a fun day.  We have gotten very lucky with our last few zoo trips as there have been very low crowds and overcast skies.  I think we are getting a little spoiled :) 
 John loves baby Caroline.
 The big girls!!  Ella Kate was so proud of her new Twinkle Toe shoes.
 My baby boy, who is not so much a baby anymore, driving the school bus at the playground.
 The boy loves ducks :)

 All of the kids loved this :)  After the big girls got off I rode it a while with John and I have to admit I loved it too.
 We pretty much had the playground all to ourselves.  The kids loved it.
 To slide or not to slide?  Where did the big girls go?
 My big girl.
 Waiting for the train :)  The train conducter let all of the kids ride for free.  She was so so sweet!
 John's favorite part of the zoo was the petting zoo.  He loved petting all of the animals.



 These two love goats.


 John trying so hard to keep him with the big girls.
 Sweet friends.
 Love watching them giggle.
 Watching the tiger.  You can't see him from this picture but he was laying against the wall.  Almost a little to close for comfort.
 Picnic lunch time.
 John and Lauren in deep conversation.

We are already looking forwart to our next trip to the zoo.
