This is actually from the zoo! There was a playground the girls ran around on for awhile. The theme was bugs so there were caterpillars to climb IN and slide down.
another zoo pic
This was the toddler area..
Maddie loved the little slides
This whale is actually a slide, you come out of his mouth.
This was another favorite of Livi's. She crossed a few times, Maddie tried but needed mama's help :)
Go Liv!
The Big Yellow Slide!
Daddy and Maddie going down together!
Mike and the girls gettin ready to go...
It was a HOT, HOT day and even with sunscreen we got baked!
Sunday we woke up to rain :( We thought our day at the zoo might be ruined but after breakfast and a quick shower it started to clear up so we headed out. It turned out to be perfect because it was overcast and after being in the sun all day Saturday we were glad the sun was hiding. The first picture is from the polar bear exhibit. This is new this year and was awesome! We got to watch the bears play in the water, then they have an underwater exhibit where you can watch them swim. They were playing and they actually stand on the bubble that you are in so it is really neat to see.
What kind of bear are you?
Mike and I loved this guy!

He seems really smart, like an old man on a mountain with lots of wisdom.
We have lots of pictures on these statues. They are all over the park but just too many to put on the blog. This was the polar bear one (obvious). Notice Olivia is putting her shades on the bear. She did that with just about every statue we did pictures with.
Liv hangin out with the monkey. She was actually afraid when it came close to her but then she moved in a little closer to check him out. The minute he would move she would jump down from the ledge.
Hanging out on a stink flower! Phew, whats that smell?
This was my favorite exhibit! The boat ride. We had a boat to ourselves, which was nice and it takes you around the Asia exhibits. You float along and pass by the animal exhibits. There are tunnels to go in and as you can see there is tall grass all along the ride on either side. My only problem with the ride is it was too short! Neat way to see the zoo.
We went to feed the birds. I was hoping the girls would get a bird on their hands but as soon as Mike walked into the cage two or three landed close and started eating. It was really hard to pass it on to the girls. Livi tried but one of the birds bit her finger. Needless to say that was enough for both of them.
This was a monkey exhibit. There was a group of them walking around and one of them had a baby so the girls like watching the baby climb around his mama and play.
