Off to the Zoo!


Yesterday Brynn and Evan's preschool took a trip to the zoo and it was a beautiful day! The kids had a blast and Brynn didn't seem the slightest bit disappointed that we didn't see the "doggies" she adamantly told me we would see there. She talked about leaving for the zoo for a solid two hours before we walked out the door. For me, the best part of this zoo is that the giraffes come right up to you for food, though both kids today seem to remember the white tiger first and the baby monkey. Both also liked the sky-ride over the zoo and wanted to do it again. The only way I got Evan on it to begin with was telling him he could throw his pellets of food down to the animals (no animals were injured during this stunt... the rhinos just seemed a bit annoyed but only stirred from their rest slightly). I was so busy looking around that I momentarily forget to remind him that at the zoo people do not count as animals... sorry Ms. Denise and diners of the cafe!

The kids had a great time with their friends, Brynn only minimally complained about the walking (yippee), and I had a great time talking with the moms!

Price's kindergarten goes there on Tuesday and I am leaving the chaperoning to Dad due to my major work commitments. I'll post his pictures and comments then, though, shhh, don't tell him that he will have other kids in his group and that the forecast is for rain.
