zoo

Today was supposed to be the warmest day of the week. So, after our morning chores and schoolwork, we headed to the Denver Zoo.



Pretty peacock -- Chase took this picture.


One of these baby giraffes was really interested in a nearby goose. You can kind of see it in this next picture:



At some point Zane conked out:



But he woke up in time to watch the funny monkeys.




This young gorilla kept playing with the kids on the other side of the glass.



Right after I snapped this next shot, the gorilla jumped against the glass right behind Brenna. Scared her a little bit. =)




It was an absolutely gorgeous day and I'm so glad we were able to be out in it.








Conner decided to stay home. He's wanting to earn some money so he cleaned and rearranged my pantry for me. Gotta love that kid!

I love this zoo. Have a bunch of pictures with the kids on that very covered wagon. *sigh* These nice days have started my littler two begging for a day there. Glad you took yours!

I haven't lived in Denver in 6 years, but everytime you post stuff like this, I DO get a little homesick! It always surprises me a little to realize that!

(We are making plans for dd to visit her bff there this summer, very exciting for everyone!)

You sure are a busy person! I haven't gotten up the nerve to go to the zoo with my little ones. I can just see Evie joining the animals behind the scenes.lol

I knew I recognized that zoo, but it's been so long...! I had to look in the comments to see if it was posted which zoo. My youngest hasn't been there, but my 22, 20, &17 have all been! Thanks for posting and reminding me of those days!
