The zoo!

Last Thursday, we had planned to go swimming with some friends. We have had a pretty wet late spring/early summer, so cool, wet weather spoiled our plans. :( We had spent Tuesday and Wednesday indoors and this Mama was stir crazy, so we needed to get out! I remembered that we had 4 free passes to the zoo, and the rain had left behind cool weather, so off we went. We packed a lunch and headed to the zoo!!!

It was a perfect day for the zoo.  It was not crowded or hot and my little troopers walked around and looked at animals for 3 hours without a complaint.  I see more zoo trips in our future!

This was my attempt at getting a cute, posed picture at the zoo.  Hm.

This rhino wanted a closer look at us

This little penguin loved Macey, and she really enjoyed having him up close

We are all zoo lovers! I take pride in saying we were the generation to begin the trips to the zoo. Jamie couldn't even walk the first time we went to the Fresno Zoo! Love Porters
