Lions and Tigers and Bears...Oh My!

Today Noah and I loaded up and picked Missy, Taylor and Trinity up and headed to the Memphis zoo! The weather was sunny and 65 and absolutely perfect for our day!

Noah could hardly see for his hat!

All of us-minus our photographer, Taylor!
Trinity and Noah checking out the pandas.

Noah posing in the barn. Notice his purple monkey? He picked his prize out first thing and wore it around his neck all day! If you are wondering what his monkey's name is, it is "Purpley".


Taylor, Noah and Trinity. Not 2 seconds after this picture was taken, Noah slid right off on to the ground. Takes after his mommy. Daddy is so proud.


Why are pandas just so cute!!??

And elephants are so ugly and strange looking?

The kids loved the polar bears and penguins.

Waiting for the polar bears to swim by...


We had a great time today. Minus 2 falls. Just a couple of scrapes, but otherwise fine! We are pooped!


p.s. Ethan stayed home with his granny. Mommy didn't think the zoo was the place for this 17-month old today! Here's a quick picture of him showing off his medals...he won 1st place in the pole vault today...

What a nice day for Mommy and Son to take a road trip with friends! Ethan will have time to spend with his Mama when he is older and knows not to scare the animals! Somewhere I heard he could be a wild child!!
