Family Day At The Zoo

One of our favorite things to do in the summer is to go to the zoo.  And we LOVE when Auntie Erin, Owen, and Grandma come with us.
The kids are all getting so big now!  They all enjoyed seeing all the animals.  Well, except the bears which I am pretty sure are dead.  I don't care what anyone says, those bears have not been out in months!  No matter day or time you go to the zoo!  The polar bear is still kicking but that is about it.
Claire and Owen are the best of friends.  They are hilarious.  They usually get pretty wild when they are together but at the zoo they were really calm and had a blast.
Gee, can you tell they are related?
Love them.
Oliver had a blast at the zoo too.  In no time at all he will 
be running around that zoo.
Right now he still needs a little help to get around the zoo.
The bats are always a big hit.
Oliver went on the merry-go-round this time.  He started out happy as a clam.
Then it started to move and he was still pretty happy.
Then it sped up.  He didn't cry and I think he really did enjoy it but every now and then he made this face.
Then of course we wrapped up the zoo with our usual train ride trip.  

I am sure we will be back at the zoo soon and hopefully we will see some bears :)

We were at the zoo on Saturday morning and guess what?!?! They got new bear cubs!!! So I think all of the bears really did die and now they are starting to re-populate! 2 grizzly bear cubs - we saw them and they were really cute!
