the preschool zoo trip....

So......I am a little behind on blogging, but hoping to be caught up this week.....
A couple of weeks ago, we joined up with Ella's preschool class at the Wildlife World Zoo.
It was a beautiful day and the weather cooperated!
The animals were out and about for us to see and we had a great time!
Ella and the tortoise
A silly giraffe

Logan and mommy feeding the giraffe
Suddenly Ella didn't think it was such a great idea :o)
A family pic with the giraffe family
The pretty zebra
Logan didn't know what to think of the rhino! Meredith pretty much sums up the rhino experience as she is seen here plugging her nose
Our safari boy!
The gals....
Her 'best' flamingo pose
Cheeks full of snacks.....
Enjoying the carousel....
These bizarre ducks had legs on their backs.....freaky!
Crazy monkeys!
Rahr! (Logan's translation of ROAR!)
Stealing mommy's glasses!

The zoo train is one of the best parts.....it actually takes you behind a fence and into an area with animals. The ostriches are pretty intimidating close up....feel like they are gonna peck you in the forehead! The kids insisted on all sitting together, so they squeezed into one bench!
This was our first time to the zoo since they opened the aquarium.....Quite good....
Check out this snake neck turtle.....ewwwww
Ella's favorite fish....

It was a super fun day! We even had lunch at the restaurant there while enjoying watching the flamingos! Can't wait for the zoo trip next year!
