Animals!

Jeremy & I surprised the kids Saturday with a trip to the Zoo! We were there when it opened at nine. Pop met us there and we had a long, hot, wonderful day seeing animals, riding the carousel, playing in foam and getting completely worn out! Here are a few pictures from our adventure:

We made it in time to watch the sea lion show.

Before we made it home we even got to stop at TCBY for some ice cream. The perfect end to a great day!
