Trip to the Zoo

Playing 'vet' with a sick animal. 

Fun with costumes!

Catching glimpses of the dolphins.  

I painted Brayden's face.  He wanted to be a tiger.  

My best attempt at getting them to take a picture together.  As you can see, Landon is climbing out of the picture, and Brayden is about to jump on top of Landon!!  I'll have to keep trying...

A couple weeks ago, we joined my sister Kellie for a day at the zoo.  Kellie and her husband Nate have season passes, so we were able to enjoy some of the special events for free, like the dolphin show and kid's play area.  Both boys loved the kid's play area, which is set up sort of like a children's museum.  They probably could have played there all day.   Brayden really enjoyed the dolphin show, especially when the dolphins would get up on their tails and "surf".  I actually had more fun watching him than watching the dolphin show!  (Side note: When I was a kid, I wanted to grow up and become a dolphin trainer...)

We also ran into our friends Dave and Martine with their daughter Samantha at the zoo!  It was a great day, and I hope to go back again soon.
