The Zoo

We bought a zoo pass for the summer so I am sure this will be the first of many outings. :) The Oakland zoo is really cool with interactive things for the kiddos to play on. Here the girls were leaping on different lilly pads, playing frogs. (They were both a little scared Kevin left them for the pic, so they are holding on to each other...so cute!) Here is the fam in front of the elephants. A family fav!



Here they had turtle shells you could sit on. They are both screaming 'help' because they thought they were falling off.

I can't remember ever seeing a turtle this big so close. He was massive! The fam with the turtle.



The kid has no fear! She had climbed up the fence and was leaning over and yelling "Hi giraffes!" It was pretty cute (and I was close by to catch her if she fell),


The below video is Camilla in the Reptile house. She was having so much fun opening and shutting doors and running away from Kevin.


Loved it all, minus the lady who called me EVERY swear word in the book because Emma accidentally stepped on her toe. Rude lady pushing in front of little kids, who is the zoo for? Oh well, what do you do?

It is so fun to see you there because it brings back memories for me. My dad used to do their taxes so he had a lifetime pass. I'm glad you had so much fun!

P.S. I heard that you have a vinyl cutter, do you sell specially made things at all? I am looking to do some things for the new house. Leave me a note at our blog or email me and let me know.

Wow, if someone yelled at me like that (especially swearing in front of the kids) I would be SO mad. Glad you had a good time though! We love the zoo, and that looks like a good one. Cute pictures:)

Love the zoo! I was thinking about getting a pass this year. Cami is getting so big and super cute!

P.S. Love your headbands, they look good in your dark hair:)
