The Zoo, Free Food, Sleepy Heads

Today we got to enjoy the day at the free zoo. I was amazed that it was free because it was awesome! It's very big and there are a lot of animals. 

Kade had fun taking pictures.

Kissing the snake.

All Kade wanted to see at the Zoo was a squid. Luckily we found a big one! (He has a thing for squids right now for some reason).

The Zoo is in a big beautiful park. I'd love to visit her in the Summer or Fall.

Afterward we found a fun playground for the kids to play at called Turtle Park. They thought it was so cool to see such big Turtles and to be able to climb all over them.

We caught a glimpse of the arch, but there was a lot of construction around it so we just looked at it from the car.

For dinner we tried to find a yummy BBQ restaurant that a friend had recommended, but it had gone out of business. Luckily an Applebee's wasn't too far away and we learned that kids eat free there on Tuesday's which worked out perfectly! It was also nice to be pretty much the only guests in the restaurant and Applebee's is always so yummy!

Sleeping arrangements in our room worked out better than I thought they would. I wanted to bring a pack n' play for Tenley, but we didn't have room so we had the kids sleep together in a queen size bed. They loved it and since we wore them out everyday they fell asleep pretty quickly!
