A day at the zoo

On Sunday we decided to make the hour drive to Toledo so I could see the elephants. For some reason, I'm REALLY into elephants right now... Well, we made it to the zoo and got to see the polar bears playing with their toys. It was so much fun to watch them jump on their ball and make big splashes in the water. After the polar bears we headed to the TRAIN!!! I got to see zebras, giraffes, ostriches and along with other animals that I can't remember. Then we ate a yummy picnic lunch and then it was off to see the elephants, They too, were very playful and trumpeting up a storm. After the elephants we checked out the new children section. I got to pet some goats and then go down this really cool slide that went through rock, I waded in the learning stream, played in the giant play house and inside forest, where I climbed trees, made a spiderweb, climbed a spiderweb, climbed a honeycomb and did lots of other really cools things. Yes, we brought Remi along, but honestly, I don't think she got how very cool the zoo can be, can you believe she actually fell asleep at the zoo! Craziness. She did play in the baby pool, but everything else was for big boys only!

"whoa, that thing is tall!"

Concentrating on holding on while riding the fastest carousel known to man kind. Mommy got dizzy just watching the thing zip around

This one just makes mommy laugh...

Who doesn't love a good tire swing
