Let's Take Dad to the Zoo!

On a nice sunny Saturday in November, we decided it was high time Chris came along for a trip to the zoo. What a wonderful day it was. Going to the zoo is always a treat, but it's extra extra special when Dad can come. Emily's favorite animal is the flamingo. Her obsession started when she got a giant stuffed flamingo at a fall garage sale. Now whenever we visit the zoo, the flamingos are a must see. In November, they had been moved to their indoor habitat, so we got to watch them squirm (were they feeling claustrophobic or were we just projecting onto them?) in their small winter home. The best parts for me, though, were watching the girls smiles on the carrousel ride and feeding the Lorikeets.



Cotton Candy...a must at the zoo!


Addison was wearing her Elsa hat complete with long blonde braid. We had SO MANY people ask if it was her real hair!












Emily LOVED feeding the Lorikeets!

Elizabeth was very brave and did it too!



There are some drums for kids to play by the Great Apes exhibit, so we ended our zoo day with some drumming and dancing. What fun!
