Aiden's ready!
Austin's ready!
Landon's ready!
First stop - the sea lions! Can you see one in the background?
Looking at some jellyfish!
Shark time!
Landon has always loved the seahorses!
Gotta love the penguins!!!
We got to see the polar bear swimming around!
Time for the Merry Go Round. Not sure we will do this one again for a while - the boys were all excited, but once we got in there, Aiden threw a fit when we tried to put him on an animal, and Landon ended up on the bench with Dave and Aiden because he wouldn't wait for us to put him up! Austin rode on a tiger!
Waiting for the dolphin show to start!
See the three dolphins down in front?
Austin riding the train - always a favorite!
Big smiles from Aiden!
Landon being all serious!
Rhinos are huge!
The cheetahs were staying cool in the shade!
Checking out a bird we hadn't seen before.
I love the elephants!
I can't remember what Aiden was asking me, but we see this face a lot when he asks us things, with his hand out like that, usually saying "right?" at the end of his sentence. It's cute!
We had to get measured by the bats!!!
The zoo just remodeled their tiger display, so I was excited to see it - it's been one where I have never seen a tiger any where close, so I wanted to see what we could see. At first we only saw one sleeping in the distance, then all of a sudden we noticed one coming closer...notice it at the top of the hill.
Coming closer. This photo cracks me up - it's behind thick glass but as soon as Landon saw it coming he moved behind so it wouldn't see him. And the boys were getting a little nervous, too! It is amazing how close they get!
See? Amazing!!!
Pose for a picture - it was a great day at the zoo!
Landon was so excited - he's always wanted to walk through White River State Park, where they have butterflies sometimes and we've never done it. So this day was the day! We didn't see any butterflies, but we got to see some other neat plants!
Landon with an "elephant ear" plant!
Aiden
A beautiful orchid!
Austin with the elephant ear!
After the zoo, we visited with Aunt Debbie at her house for a bit, then headed to Tusing's to celebrate RYAN's 40th BIRTHDAY!!! :) First off, Brad had to show us his new 4-wheeler and Austin and Aiden got to take a ride with Uncle Ryan!
Uncle Ryan and Austin
Uncle Ryan and Aiden.
We had some dinner with cousins - always a good time! It's funny as they all get a little older to hear the conversations they have and what they share.
Nice socks, old man! Ha ha - just kidding! :)
Time to sing to the birthday boy!
Good job, Ryan!
Evan even played some guitar for us! Thanks Evan!
It was a great day at the zoo and then with family!
