Waiting to get into the Zoo.
Yesterday we took our kids to the Hogle Zoo. I think it was one of the first days it actually felt like summer. We got up there early and started our day. It has been a few years since we have been there. We missed the baby elephant, it is supposed to be born any day. The other elephant is turning 40 on Friday and they are having a birthday party for it that day.
We had my older son's final baseball game last night after we got home. It was their game to determine whether they got to go to the tournament or not. It was a pretty intense game. They had it tied for quite awhile. The other team scored and was one point ahead before the last inning so it was pretty tight. One boy on our team ended up hitting and making it home and tieng the game again. They ended up playing a 2 hour game with about 4 extra innings with no scoring until the other team finally scored and got the winning run. The Phillies lost their chance to go to the tournament by one point. They played their hearts out last night though. They were pretty dissapointed but they knew they tried hard. They had a good season.

How fun to go to the zoo with kids who actually like it! I hope that day will come soon....when I will not have to worry about naps and they all want to see the animals! That is so fun to watch your boy play baseball. One of my favorite times of the summer is to watch Caden play football. LOVE IT!
That looks like fun. I should take the kids to the zoo sometime soon. They would love that.
Sounds like you had a good time. Every time I go to the zoo, we see something really disturbing. One time a gorilla was making himself throw up and then he would eat it. Gross! Last time it was a bear licking it's own private parts. It is sometimes hard to explain things to the kids when they ask "Mom, what is that bear doing?"
