Zoo Day

So before the mystery illness took hold at our house this week, we enjoyed a super fun day at the zoo last Sunday with my brother and his girlfriend. The kids were so excited to see their Uncle Jason since we missed him at Christmas time. Darn 'Arctic Blast'! We lucked out with a gorgeous, not-too-cold February day--a perfect day for animal viewing!

The eagle's nest. Holy moly, the real bald eagle that we saw...impressive!

Yee-haw!

Can I just say, the zoo train??? Come on Oregon Zoo! If you're going to charge people extra to ride it, at least clean up your "backstage" areas! And if I wanted to see lots of parked cars, I'd have an eager salesperson drive me around a car lot in his golf cart! For free! Miss Molly kept waiting to see "the castle". Ha! (Yes, Sis, the Disneyland train is hard to beat!)

If you're local, you really should go see the new baby elephant. (That's not him in the background.) He was so fun to watch and quite a crowd pleaser!

Thanks again for a really fun day, Uncle Jason and Rebecca! xoxoxo
