Hogle Zoo

We finally made it back to the zoo - only our second time this summer (we have a season pass). It was so hot and I knew it would be really crowded with the opening of the African Savannah. So the week before school started we finally made it. We had a great day - mostly - James did some of the time pouting over who knows what.

Cute kids eating our packed lunch.

Really neat Giraffe statues.

We tried to get Mia to sit with the Lions too but she was too scared.

Mia and Emma having fun playing African instruments while James pouted.

I finally let let them play in the water because I remembered to bring an extra change of clothes. Thanks a lot zoo for making one more thing I have to remember because you know they will get wet. Why does the zoo need a splash pad anyway, aren't the animals enough? Okay rant over!

Mia had fun but amazingly didn't get that wet.

James finally finished pouting during our last few minutes at the splash pad.

My cute girls hanging with the polar bear.

Mia is scared of real lions too!

The train is back!!
