Zoo time!

Hoyt's invited us to the zoo on Stake Conference Saturday since both Jeff and Andrew were to be gone all day, we decided to have fun too! :) So Stacy and I and 7 kids under the age of 7......quite possibly bringing the zoo to the zoo.

 Giraffes were being fed on the other side of the habitat

 yea....for the zoo??

 Lucas wore the wrong sandals and they caused a blister before we even got in the zoo....Drew, Abbey and Lucas

 random peacock

LOVE the spider monkey exhibit

 Barbara wanted to go see the new Orangutang exhibit. A 'baby' - 5 years old, momma, dadda and the oldest orangutang at 50+ years old. Most lounged in the shade, but of course the 5 year old wanted nothing to do with sitting still - he was climbing, swinging and having a great time. Wonder if they would have noticed my red-head in there?!

 To the splash pad

 

 Lucas and his sweet friend Barbara, Drew

 Love the zoo now - out of that stroller!

 Abbey and Drew - not really sure what to say about these two - they're so fun together!

 where'd everyone go?

 'And then I did this, then that and my arms went like this.....!" crazy kid.

The kimodo dragon - this statue was close to the exhibit and on the way out. Lea caught a glance at it and jumped! Thought it was the real thing -  OUT. of it it's cage.....

Stacy assured her it was just a statue.......
Had a great time and the kids were exhausted!
