A day at the Zoo!

So, today we had to get out of the house. We are all feeling lots better, just about back to normal. The weather today was unbelievable! So we all hopped in the car and ran a couple of errands on the way to the zoo. We went on the last day of early voting to vote and lucked out with the crowd. We did not have to wait at all, which was super nice. We then headed to the zoo. The kids were both so excited because they've been sequestered in the house for the past few weeks. They enjoyed running around on there own from one animal exhibit to the next. One of my children's favorite exhibits is the meerkat mound. Today the meerkats were very energetic, one in particular. It kept running in a circular pattern around the mound and always coming back to were Ashlynn was standing. Ashlynn ate this up and was laughing and so excited. When the meerkat would start running its path, Ashlynn would run along the wall squealing with delight. It was so adorable. Logan always like to go around the corner were they have this glass bubble thing that he sits in to watch the meerkats do there thing. He always will watch for mommy and daddy and wave at us excitedly when we see him sitting there on his own. Ashlynn really wanted to go on the carousel so we asked Logan if he would also like to. Of course he said "No!" He seems to be just a bit leery of the whole carousel concept. So Dustin bought a ticket for Ashlynn and himself. Needless to say, when Logan saw that they were going without him, he wanted to go to. So, I ran to get him a ticket while the three of them got situated on the carousel. Of course Logan opted out of sitting on one of the horses and found him a wagon to sit on. He looked very unimpressed as he went round and round. Ashlynn was horse hopping, thinking one had to be a bit faster then the next. We then jumped on the train and the tables were turned. Ashlynn was not impressed but Logan was so excited. We had a good time being outside on such a beautiful day and being able to see some of the beautiful creations that God has placed on this earth!
