First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my beautiful sister today!! You are a wonderful sister, wife, friend and mom to your three littles. Love you Ness!

I'm so behind on posts from our time here in Illinois, but thought I'd post what we did today. Being a beautiful day here, we decided to visit the local zoo. Granny treated us and even got a wagon for Jack to ride on, much to his delight!
|
Visiting the ponies in the petting zoo...they are housed in a barn-like structure and as soon as Jack saw the building he yelled, "I go visit the farm, Mom!" |
|
He had great fun pulling the wagon, as well as riding in it |

Posing with the zebra's in the background at the Africa exhibit |
|
Sophie was actually there too! |
|
Magnificent giraffes...Granny and I were commenting that although we're from Africa and have seen giraffes in the wild, neither of us had ever seen a giraffe that close before! They are truly beautiful and such graceful creatures. |

Watching the lioness sunning herself up on the rocks |

Posing by the tiger statue, as the real tiger was new and still getting used to his "park". He didn't want to make an appearance today! |
What a fun outing..thanks for taking us Granny! And the kids slept for three hours this afternoon. Bonus to a busy morning!
