Zoo

We spent the afternoon of May 18th at the Zoo. We went with Aleese, Afton, Lila, Becca, and Avery. It was a really hot day which was a little odd because it had been a cold Spring up to this point. It was around 90 degrees! Evie was really trying to take it all in. She was studying everything and didn't show much emotion until it was time to move on to the next attraction and then the crying started up because she didn't want to leave what she was currently looking at. Only to find that she really did like the next attraction but once again didn't want to move on. Her favorite part was seeing the monkeys, I figured this because she talked about them the rest of the day and she showed the most emotion when we looked at them. Stratton just wanted to see everything, he didn't want to miss out on anything. We got to ride the new merry-go-round and the train which was bitter sweet... sweet because the kids loved it, bitter because Evie did not want it to end and cried and cried after it was over. So a pretty average day at the zoo... uncomfortable heat, crying kids, loaded up with treats, exhausted by the end, and always end up going back (for the kids sake) right?
