Zoo Day with Parker!



Ice sculptures at the zoo. When we came back at 1600, there were icicles hanging off the reindeer and the snowflake. Kinda fun! I think they should have put a red LED on the reindeer.

Anyway, we had a great time visiting with the Florida edition of the Tweed family! It was great spending time Parker, Michelle, Stephanie, Allie, and Mom/Dad Jensen! The cousins loved seeing each other too, though I think Jack and Joe may not remember much of Parker. Ah well. Maybe we'll make it to the beach someday when they're bigger and they'll remember more.



As it stands, the kids loved seeing the animals. I didn't hear too many complaints about the cold either. Kelsey didn't like the smell in some of the animal houses. But that's pretty standard with her.



Poor Kelsey could barely handle the giraffe house. She made it through the small animal house better than some times. Poor girl.



Cute babes in arms. It was a miracle Joe fell asleep at the very end. But good times for all! We sure miss you guys already!



This was pretty much Jack's pose the entire time. He is 2 going on 16. He kept arguing about what the names of all the animals were. It wasn't a snow leopard...it was a cheetah.

"No, Mommy! Cheetah!" said Jack.
"Whatever," said Mommy.

Oh, and pictures of Jack were not to be tolerated. He didn't want me taking his picture the entire time. He's got his own ideas and he's definitely a very determined individual. But the kids are enjoying winter! We're looking forward to Christmas! Are you?
