WW: The Zoo

Saturday wasn't supposed to be rainy, so we headed down to the zoo in Jacksonville. We went ahead and bought a year membership so we can go whenever we want for free (have I mentioned we love the zoo?) Anyway, the zoo is pretty big and it looks like it has a lot of neat things. We only saw maybe half of the animals before it started raining and we had to leave. I already can't wait to go back!

Look mom! A monkey!

The Zoo really is great! There is nothing I enjoy more than experiencing it through my kids eyes.

Aw...I like zoos too...like I feel sad for the animals but then I think they were born in captivity, and they are really cute, and zookeepers really love them so...go zoos! :D

What fun pics! I also love the zoo, and we also have a membership to our zoo yet we haven't been in forever! I think I will have to scout the weather forecast for a good day to go soon! I love that last picture the best - he looks like he wants to say, "Mom, put away the camera and take me to see more animals already!"

Danielle said...

Zoos are always so fun! We did the Pittsburg Zoo in pouring rain! It was cold and we still continued!

It is a shame that it rained. It was suppose to rain all weekend in Maryland, but did not wind up raining till Monday afternoon. I have not been to the zoo in a long time. I should take the kids soon.

Lindy said...

Love the zoo and taking kids (grandkids) to the zoo! I used to go show them to the monkeys too! Love your blog (my daughter is a navy wife too).

mrssoup said...

Your son is adorable! I can't wait to take my daughter when she is actually awake....we took her at 3 months and she slept through the whole thing (understandably). I love the zoo!
