The Zoo!

We made our annual summer trip to the zoo with my mom!
The closest zoo to us doesn't have zebras, giraffes, hippos, or lions (basically all of the Madagascar characters ;) so my boys love going to this zoo!
Ella couldn't get enough of the petting the animals... she just kept going back and forth between them all.  We seriously had to pull her away!


She was absolutely enchanted with the zoo animals.  She would peek through every gate and over every ledge in excitement and anticipation.  So adorable!

My boys!
 They always love to follow along with their maps.  :0)
 
Loving every moment with her grammy...

...who hardly put her down for a second!


Jumping over and through the caves!
Climbing trees...

and the spider web!
The gorilla is always one of my favs and definitely didn't disappoint us today!!
Had no idea they were this talented!  ;)
What a show!  We were amazed!!



Our favorite family picture spot



Feeding the birds
Jacob actually got one to come down!
Ella loved the birdies!  :0)


Penguins!


Ending the day in the Zoonasium.



Watching the puppet show
Some final pictures on the outside!



I loved watching Ella smell the roses with my mom!
It's been ten years since my niece was this age...  it's so sweet to watch them together :0)
