Woodland Park Zoo

We took a fun drive down I-90 a few weeks ago and spent the day at the Zoo. We went over to the Seattle area to take some baby clothes, toys, pay pen etc to my brother who is having a baby in just a few short weeks. I thought since we were over that way we would make a day of it and have some fun at the zoo and boy did we have fun.

The kids enjoyed looking at all of the animals and sites. Here is a slide show of the pics from the day.

The elephant featured in the above slide show was doing a dance. It was so cute to watch. Here is a video that Tyler shot of the 'dancing elephant.' One of the zoo workers said that she was taken to anothe zoo to 'mate' and while in the big truck traveling she started doing this dance and has ever since. I guess it is a stress thing, which is sad to think about, but the dance itself if very cute to watch.

Anyway, it was a very fun day. The kids had a blast and it was well worth the 4 hour drive to get there. We will definitely have to make the trip again.

A Day at Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium

I thought maybe doing a scrapblog would be easier than posting all these pictures on blogger. LOL. You can click on the scrapblog logo in the bottom right corner and it should take you to scrapblog to view full size. I did not want to make a post that goes on forever and ever.

The kids had a great time. We took Aunt Tammie with us to help me out with all the kids. She was funny, kept hearing her count to make sure we had everyone. In our home video, you can even hear her in the backgroud counting, "One, two, three, four, five, and you have Jameson that's six." LOL. We kept her hopping and wore her out good.

This was one of the kids favorites events from our time at Grammy and Poppy's house. It is something we have not been able to do for a few years and don't have over here in Spokane either. It was nice to be able to take them. Hopefully we can make it back when Jameson is older and can appreciate it more.
