Day at the Zoo

We finally got the opportunity to have a family day, so we took advantage! I didn't have to work, Justin took his 'Monday catch-up day' off, the boys were out of school for Spring Break... ZOO TIME!

The gorillas were definitely my favorite :)

The Giraffes were a hit, too. Probably because there weren't many animals actually awake ;)

Kellen wasn't impressed with the photo shoot, but I was having deja vu from last year with this shot so I made him sit and force a smile :) Their long lanky legs are a sure sign of how much they've grown since the last time they sat on that rhino.

Kellen forcing himself to oblige :)

Checking out the ostrich. Kellen said he "looks really weird and has really big eyes"

Taking a breather and enjoying the view

The boys thought the road runner was pretty cool. Sorry guys, you're on your own on that one...birds are GROSS!

Hello Brown Bear

Seriously, Cole, STOP growing up so fast!

Getting a better view.

Taking a little break for a snack

Sure would've been nice if the alligators would've showed some sign that they were in fact real. BORING!

Can't really see it, but gigantic Cougar back there...you guessed it, SLEEPING!

Cole took this picture. Pretty impressive :)

Justin kept making goofy faces so Cole took it upon himself to take control of this photo opportunity :)

We had a great time and were so happy to all be together for the day. I think the boys must've asked 10 times if we were sure no one had to go to work that day :)
