Rainy day at the zoo

My parents got us a zoo membership this year for Christmas which is awesome!!  It accidentally emailed the confirmation to us before Christmas Day which worked out perfectly because I was already planning on heading to the zoo with Kristen and her kiddos.  We were able to use the membership already, perfect!

It was rainy but that meant there was hardly anyone there.  The boys were great and didn't seem to mind the rain at all as they happily ran from exhibit to exhibit.  We spent a good 3 1/2 hours there and it wasn't until the end when the rain started to pick up that the boys realized they were cold and wet and wanted to "be warm in the van."  We survived pushing the boys up the hill toward the exit (probably around 80-85lbs of weight!) and after changing socks/pants they happily either watched a movie or napped on the way home.  I loved watching their enthusiasm with the animals and just enjoyed the sweet company of my friend.  It was a really fun day.
