My zoo pass was expiring soon so we went one last time. (I don't think I will renew it for a while, I think the novelty of the zoo wears off with kids when they get to go ALL the time, I'll probably get another membership in a year or so.) Grandma even joined in on the fun. I decided since it was our last visit we could do all the fun "extras" at the zoo. ("Extras" basically means it costs extra money!)
We rode the carousel first, Callie was funny on this ride. She kept changing her mind about which animal she wanted to ride. Really I think she was just nervous about the ride. Once the ride started she clung for dear life onto Grandma's neck. Poor Grandma was almost strangled as the bird went up and then back down. Too funny.
We got to ride the train around the zoo next, we have never done this before. My kids really enjoyed this, I liked it because I could relax and enjoy the animals.
Next up, feeding the Giraffes! What AMAZES me is how scared Callie was on the carousel and yet when we were with the Giraffes she was FEARLESS! She fed them, and kept waving and saying "Hi Giraffe. Hi Giraffe!" I was shocked!
Lastly, we got to pet the sting rays. I'm glad we saved this for last because the boys got SOAKING wet!
SO wet they had to take their shirts off! Such BOYS!!!!!
We had such a wonderful day. I'm very grateful my mom came to enjoy this fun day at the zoo! The highlight of this trip for me, was watching my children's eyes light up as they marveled at some of God's creations.
