Can you believe we haven't been to the zoo since last Halloween? And we have a membership, so it's not like we have to pay each time we go!! It's been too long for sure! This was actually the first time we'd been to the zoo since Ashten was born - see how happy she is?!?!
We stopped for a photo op on the hippos. A nice lady offered to take a picture of all of us.
When we got to the lions, the boys named one of them Aslan (can you tell we've watched Narnia recently?)
Chris favorite animal to see this time was the tiger. It was right up next to the glass and it was really cool!
My favorite animal to see is always the bears. This silly one is sleeping in a tree!!
Logan's best bear face!
Chris and the boys rode the train while I fed Ashten. It worked out well.
Chris had to carry a boy or two here and there throughout the zoo so their legs "wouldn't fall off!"
Ashten's asleep - she's seen enough. Time to go home!
I'm so happy we got this time to get out and do something as a family - Chris goes back to school in a few days and Brayden and Logan aren't far behind. Pretty soon it will just be me, Preston and Ashten around here during the days, what on earth are we going to do with ourselves? I am grateful though, most families don't get to have the dad home all summer, ti's a nice chance to reconnect as a family!
Yeah I would LOVE to have Columbo home for a whole summer! So jealous! But I"m sure it takes some getting used to once he goes back...
