A Hot Summer Day at the Zoo

On Wednesday, we met some friends at the Zoo. I forgot my camera, so thanks to Jessica for these pictures! Where's Sophia?

Trevor pulled Nate and Anderson in Sophia's wagon almost the whole time!

Here are the boys in front of the bird display. This was taken shortly after we had watched the zookeeper feed the meerkats and the foxes. That was very cool - the boys really enjoyed that! The Zookeeper was so friendly and told us lots of fun facts about the animals.

We cut our trip short due to the heat. Instead of visiting the farm animals we let the boys play in the water near the entrance of the zoo. They loved it. Ryan's favorite was to sit on the spray and then when the other kids ran by he would move so the water would spray them!
We ended our day with a picnic at the park - it was so hot nobody had to change into dry clothes! We had lots of fun with our friends the M's, R's and S's!

The picture of the boys in front of the bird cage is so cool. I am glad you had fun and am not so sorry to have missed it after all--with the heat as it was.

Nate totally looks like he could be one of YOUR boys!!! He looked at this picture and said that his friend in the yellow shirt had on a basketball shirt that day! LOL, we had a great time too.
