We're going to the Zoo...

We had a blast at the zoo. (The only downside being they had dinosaurs that moved and made noise throughout the zoo and they totally freaked Kadie out, thus, she wouldn't pose for any pictures).
There is a park at the end and Taylor tried repeatedly until she could cross the bars all by her self. Way to go Taylor!
They also have a little train ride at the zoo. Kimberly enjoyed it for the most part...
...Until they blew a whistle going through a tunnel!
It was pretty warm out and we had just climbed a steep hill:

And here's a slightly better family picture:
I'll try not to bore you with a bunch of random animal pictures but these were my favorite:
One of the current big attractions is the baby elephant:
It was awesome to watch this tiger play with the tube in the water:
This cute little owl is full-grown. One of her eyes got infected in the wild and had to be removed. Since she can no longer hunt, she now lives at the zoo.

We just went to the zoo a week ago also. Kynsi didn't like that the dinos made noise and sprayed water one bit either. :) It was super busy the day we went though and your day looks like it might have been a little less crowded. I'll have to find out what your schedule is like nowadays so we can get the girls together to play sometime!

Your family is keeping busy this summer! Both the splash park and zoo looks like lots of fun, tell Taylor good job at crossing the monkey bars! She's a toughie!!
