Back to the zoo!

March 3rd: Today was beautiful...low 60s and sunshine, but the rain and cold weather is heading back in tonight, so we took advantage of the early afternoon and hit the zoo! Just being out in the fresh air did wonders for us all! Here are Drew and Katie checking out Boddhi...he is our baby elephant that is one month younger than Katie...he has gotten so big over the winter!
Katie and Drew checking out the sun bears..."They're always sleeping," says Katie. She's right, they are always sleeping!
Our buddy, the lion, is almost always in this exact spot checking us all out. Unless he's pacing back and forth and roaring...but he usually does that in the spring!Katie doesn't consider any trip to the zoo complete without a carousel ride. Alex is still terrified of the carousel and despite my holding her, still sobbed up until it started moving. Luckily, she stopped crying once we were going around...I'm sure the people around us were very thankful for that as well!
Katie in action...she yells "wheee" every time she goes up!
And we had to stop and check out Uncle Brad's favorite animals, the penguins, on our way out...just for you, Uncle Brad...
