Big day at the zoo

One of our requests when coming out to Missouri was to hit the Omaha zoo. And my bro, Jake n wife Shelly, graciously took us out 2 hours to go to the zoo. And the kids loved it :)

It's hard to get good pics at the zoo, but we tried to capture the best of it :)

The petting zoo 

Craig kept touching all the goats like he was playing duck duck goose. There were so many and he had to touch them all :)

Camel rides... Now you don't get/see that every day!

The monkeys!

The tropical forests

Their forest really was beautiful

Feeding the budgies

The desert dome

Keeping cool... Humidity is not something I'm sure I could get use to! But it really wasn't all that bad ;) it gets worse here later in the summer I'm sure!!

(Not at the zoo here but a 'cooling off' pic I forgot to put in last post)

After the zoo we brought choas to the Cheesecake Factory ha! Plates, paper, kids were flying n moving about everywhere ;) good memories though, and we will laugh when we think of them :)

We have really enjoyed hanging out with my brother and his fam. Cousin time is priceless.

A moment of down time with Shelly n Jake

This trip we had to make without Jeremy and we miss him! So to my hubby, thinking of you, wishing you were here!
