Zoo Day!

One of the reasons we wanted to live closer to the Twin Cities 

was to be able to take advantage of the many fun places!

Not very far from our place is the 

Minnesota Zoo!

First visit to the Minnesota Zoo. 09/2011

 We bought a family pass...woo hoo!

I'm so excited to be able to go there with the boys anytime, 

enjoy the exhibits, 

(both indoor & outdoor--that's pointed at you, long winter months)

and take advantage of such a fantastic offering of learning and fun!

J enjoyed some cuddles with Daddy along one of the trails:

 ...and at the end of the day, he graciously took over stroller duty:

J pushes N in the jogger 09/2011

I don't know how N could tell J was pushing the stroller, 

but he thought it was hilariously funny.

We had a great time at the zoo...now that the days are cooler, this will become one of our regular fun stops!
