Yay, zoo day!

The weather was beautiful today--cooler, partly cloudy, and little sprinkles every now and then. Well, beautiful weather for the zoo. Something about rain seems to make the animals more active and the overcast means I didn't have to lather the kids up with sunblock. Nate was reading a book about the zoo this morning and asked if we could go and since we have a season pass (thanks mom), we headed to the zoo as soon as Liam woke up from his nap. The tulips were all in bloom and gorgeous. Nate and his friend Rylee walked the whole time without getting too hot. There was hardly anyone there so we took our time with the animals and talked to their keepers. They put giraffes on birth control! Weird. It was a very nice shorter two hour trip, but it's nice to NOT have to spend the entire day there to get your money's worth. I think we'll go back tomorrow. ;)

Hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather.
