A Day at the Zoo

Thursday I took the kids to the zoo to meet up with some other homeschoolers and we had a blast (of course all the school kids were there too, Earth Day is apparently not a day to go to avoid the crowds!).  We got a pass and plan to go frequently over the next year.  They have homeschool Mondays during the school year and we plan on attending those once a month once they start back up.  Anyhow, here are a few pics that I snagged!

When we arrived at the botanical gardens (it adjoins the zoo).

Ruthanne with her favorite animal, the flamingos.  Guess why they are her favorite.

Where Paul spent most of the trip, good thing the carousel had a mirror so I could get a picture.
