A Trip to the Zoo

We took a trip to the zoo yesterday. It was soooo much fun. We only stayed for a couple of hours...maybe 3 or so before it started pouring!

I don't know if you caught a glimpse of those clouds over Oak Cliff...Whew, those things were eerie looking! I had never seen clouds like that before, they looked like upside down mountains or something.

Anyways, we had fun, didn't see many animals, we mostly stayed in the kid's area. The girls had a blast!

Here are some of our pics:

The girls are checking out the ants crawling on the ground

They've really cleaned up this area and made it all pretty!

Piper is trying to get a better look at those birdies!

Lizards need lovin' too

And those clouds...scary!

Crazy!

What are you going to do in the rain but ride the carousal a couple of times.

And finally the rain... We were really sad at first. We thought the zoo fun was over. Until...

We let the kids play in the rain!!! They had soooo much fun! They were so wet by the time we got to the car, they ended up riding home pantless and snuggled in a towel.

You know Juliet has to try everything....she loved the rain!

And John and I happy the kiddos are happy!
