Fun with Friends at the Zoo!!!

 So 9 moms and a whole gaggle of children all went to the zoo!!! I think it was 15 kids... :)  We had a nice little group!

Here the girls are petting a snake... grrooossss!!!

So Vale really liked brushing the goat and he was doing so well... until he started SUCKING on the brush... that probably tops the sickest-thing-my-kids-have-put-in-their mouths list.  So gross... 

Vale LOVED this mini horse!  The zoo worker just said how fearless Vale was...

... and the horse brayed and Vale lost it... ha!

We were able to get some of the kids on the giant lizard outside the reptile house... of course MY kid's the one that won't look... 

They were all really well behaved!  We are fortunate!

Connor was really enjoying the Twiss girls during this outing! 
He loved making Darcy laugh...

Then was cuddling up to Isla when we stopped to eat lunch... 

There was a BABY giraffe!  It was sooo cute!

So Connor enjoyed hangin with his little buddy Isaiah watching the chimps... but I was told after this picture was taken he was licking the glass... lovely... Vale's gonna get hoof and mouth disease and Connor with have some African primate virus...

CAMEL!!! :)

Connor teaching Charity how to ride an elephant... :)

Vale taming the alligator... 

Yeah we didn't ride the jaguar... it looks like he wants to eat me... :-/

We had a great time at the zoo and hope to do it again soon!!!
