Day 3 (Monday, June 16)

We visited the Sacramento Zoo in the morning before it got too hot. I thought it was a fun zoo. Derek was bored most of the time. He told me "all we are doing is standing here staring at animals". I guess he didn't catch the entertainment in that. He wanted to play on the playground he saw on the way in.
McKenna is so pretty! She was such a good girl all day...as usual.

Man, those giraffes are tall...about 15 meters wouldn't you say, Dave?! :)
Derek got excited about all the palm trees or "Hawaii trees" as he referred to them. He takes after me. I love palm trees, because if you see them it usually means you are on vacation!

We had entirely too much fun at this painted board. I think this was one our longest stops taking pictures here.

Grandma and Grandpa.

We ate a picnic lunch at a park across the street from the zoo. It was great food and great company! Sadly, this was our most complete family picture taken all week. Lindsay (too injured to walk), Jared (orthodontist appointment), and Jacob (on a mission in Peru) are missing from it and others can't be seen behind heads.

After our family home evening about fathers, the grandkids playing in the wading pool in the backyard. The water was cold, but only Taylor seemed to care.
