Springtime at the Zoo

We decided to take advantage of the beautiful Spring weather (afterall, it'll be in the triple digits around here in no time!) and spend some time at the zoo. Now that we have a membership, we have more freedom to visit and only see what we really want to see and not feel guilty that we haven't gotten our money's worth! The zoo was quite busy, so we didn't feel bad leaving after only an hour!


For some reason, Jacob really wanted to see the birds and crocodiles at the zoo, so we spent much of our time at the reptile house and watching the vultures.






This was pretty much the only picture we could slow him down enough to take!


Of course, no trip to the zoo would be complete without a stop to the Giants of the Savanna. We just had to see the elephants and Jacob's favorite, the giraffes!









All in all, it was a lovely way to spend a spring day!
