First Trip to the Zoo!

In October, the weather was so perfect and we decided to take Aaron to the Fort Worth Zoo. He loves the animals in his books and when he sees them, so we thought he would love the zoo! Jarrett took a day off of school and we had a wonderful family day! We took a million pictures, so I'll try to just post the best of the day!


Getting ready to head into the zoo!

This was Aaron's face most of the day! He seemed to be very interested in the animals and loved being outside! Shocker.

We visited the monkeys first...he thought they were great!

Mommy and Aaron on the train!

Daddy and Aaron on the train! Aaron loved the train just about as much as the animals--maybe more :)


 Aaron peeked in on a cow! Thank goodness for Daddy lifting him up to see the animals!

 We let Aaron stretch his legs..and of course he took off! He loves to run and be on the go!


Checking out the penguins...


We came across this statue of a kangaroo and we think Aaron thought it was real. We put him up next to it and he reached out to touch it and hold it's hand...pretty cute :)



Aaron got to see giraffes and elephants! They were pretty far away and if it wasn't for Daddy, the day would have been a bust. We think Aaron will love the zoo even more as he gets older and can really see the animals!



It was such a fun and sweet family day! Love making these memories and we can't wait to visit the zoo again!


This was taken as we pulled out of the parking lot--about 1 minute after getting in the car :) I think it was a pretty successful day!
