Zoo



MaKenna and I went to the zoo today. We went with Grandma and Grandpa Neal, Uncle Mike, Aunt Amy and the cousins. It was so nice outside! I enjoyed seeing all the animals. MaKenna....well slept most of the time and when she was awake played with her toys. We went on the train ride too! That was fun. I held MaKenna on my lap as we rode around the zoo. She LOVED it! She was just looking at everything with her big eyes! I think that was the highlight of the whole trip.
As we were looking at the penguins Carter decided he wanted to throw his hat at them and actually threw his hat over the gated area!!!! haha... So they had to go get a worker to get his hat. Silly boy! Keegan stuck by my side most of the time. When we saw the leopards and the jaguars he told me his new name was Leopard Man because he is as fast as them. But the only difference was that he was a nice leopard.
We went and saw the giraffes. I love them! We went inside the building and saw one giraffe walking around and around in a little room. He would grab a bite to eat and just keep walking around and round. Then all of a sudden stopped right in front of us and stared a man down who was standing next to us. It was quite funny!
The kids rode the merry go round and it looked like they had a great time. Grandma Neal rode with Keegan and Amy with Carter. Watching them go round and round made me sick! I was able to get one picture of them but you can only see Barbara!
I will post pictures when I can find my usb cord.

Sounds like a fun day. Ellery LOVES animals too, but I think the closest thing to a zoo she's been is the state fair: pigs, sheep, cows, etc... Unless you count going to the actual zoo for zoo lights in the winter, but there aren't many animals, it's dark and colder than it should ever be while at a zoo.
