The Zoo

We LOVE living close to cousins! It is so fun to be able to do things together and make memories!!! We joined the Calhouns and some friends for a trip to the zoo before it was time for the kids to go back to school. This zoo is absolutely amazing! It's huge and has a ton of great animals to see.

Some of the crew looking at the lions. 

So happy to get a good look at some lions! 

Great monkeys that Ezra loved looking at.  

Sam was loving a different breed of monkey. 

All the statues were a big hit...maybe even more than the real animals.  

Leila wasn't quite as interested.  

I stood and watched this exhibit for awhile. Such an adorable gorilla family! This baby was crawling all over it's mama. So fun to watch.

Took a break for lunch. Leila loves Aunt Tisha! 

Sweet monkeys! I seriously was obsessed with all the different kinds of monkeys! 

Getting a decent picture of a bunch of kids climbing on a rhino is a lot harder than it sounds! This is the best one I got. :) 

The elephants were beautiful! So cool that they are red from soil here. 

Leila loved them too! 

Zebras, ostriches, and I didn't even get pictures of everything! Such an awesome day at the zoo!
