Papa goes to the ZOO!

Bridget, Sarah, Molly, Cayden, Mya and I took Papa to the Zoo!
Dave hadn't been there in YEARS!
I think he forgot how fun it could be~
since he agreed to go with us again!  HA!

Our Cleveland Zoo is BIG!  
I do not much care for the way it is laid out~
You can spend the whole day there, yet the time spent
looking at the animals is minimal to the time you spend
walking and walking to each section!! 
It's a workout people!!
But we did have a fabulous day!

Each big kid declared an elephant to be "theirs"~
I love how they were each drawn to a certain design, one that truly suits
who they are...
Sarah choose this "Peace" loving little guy!

Molly adored this polka dotted "pretty" little one!

Cayden liked the "rainbow" ~ all the colors of the world "friend"!

They watched the "real" ones for a while too!

This little guy was a big hit, running in and out of its hole!

Molly was a great helper with Mya

She and Sarah will make great babysitters one day!

Funny little creatures~


Following Papa, 
where ever he may go!


We took pictures with the wolves...

Molly

Sarah

Cayden
Sarah worried he might fall off!
He wanted to get on just like Molly did!

Rock climbing Rosie!

Whatever Sarah does...
Molly does too!


Mya took a lot in from the comfort of her stroller!
Sarah and Molly telling her to look!

Polar bear in the palm of her hand!


Gone are the fun days when you could feed the seals
but we still liked watching them swim and play!


Cayden~ "it's a pony"
Sarah~ "no it's a donkey"
Cayden~ "it's a pony Sarah"
Sarah~ "Cayden, I'm telling you, it's a donkey"
ENOUGH!

We left the zoo
exhausted but happy~
Papa got everyone a little friend to take home!


Sarah got a leopard~

Mya got a monkey~
Cayden got a shark~
Just look at that tired little face on Mya Brynn!

Molly got a little tiger in a purse~

We got home and promptly went upstairs for
NAPS!
People who say, "My kids will never takes naps"~
 well, I have the secret
for you!

See Molly...

See Cayden...

See Sarah...

Here's the secret... sshhhhhhhh
See Me?
