We were so lucky to have Dave home from work on Monday, after the craziest, busiest month of work he has ever had. We spent the day at the zoo - it was so fun! The weather was great, we got there early so it wasn't crowded, and we were able to spend the day together as a family. Does it get better than that? Since we were there in the morning, most of the animals were being fed so they were out and pretty active. We got quite a show!

Here are some fun pictures from the day:

This was so hilarious! The bear was just sitting there staring at all of us

We were lucky they were so close to us - we even got to hear them trumpet

Cute girls

We saw a baby giraffe!

Sweet McKenna - love this picture (she looks so grown up!)

McKenna and a bunny - very appropriate for the season :)

Pretty awesome picture with the leopard - we couldn't tell if he was happy or mad to see us...

McKenna was our navigator
