Zoo Day

One of our favorite times to go to the zoo is at the end of October. They fill the main walkway with hundreds of carved pumpkins. It is always so cool.

And luckily, this year we got to go see all the pumpkins with a few of our friends. Our playgroup went, so Dallin had to miss out, but that’s ok, he told me that he had a great time at school that day.

Layton and Mandy had a great day too. Full of time with friends

and wonder at all the things we saw.

Mandy even attempted to feed the giraffe. She didn’t actually do it though because she was afraid of his tongue. Looking at it in this picture, I can see why!

Layton spent most of the day in the stroller. But that’s ok because he had no shortage of friends who joined him.

When he did get out, he slid down the slide (honest he really is having fun in this picture despite the look of terror).

He crawled around in the spider web.

And he pretended to be a cute little monkey.

And Mandy found lots of things to enjoy as well. Flowers.

Slides.

And lots and lots of animals. She loved climbing on the edge of the fence to get a closer look.

Thanks to all our friends who joined us. We need to go again soon!
