"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly." - Pres. Thomas Monson

Spring Break - Day 2

The next morning we drove a few miles to the Hogle Zoo. We hadn't been there in years. (Blogger won't let me move the pictures, so they'll be a little out of order.) After the zoo we ate lunch and spent the rest of the day swimming...finally. :)


The giraffes are always my favorite. Maybe I just relate to them... I'm tall and spotted too. :) We first saw them indoors and one bent down and put his face so close to mine it was a little scary. The kids got a crack out of it.
The train ride ended up being a major highlight for Derek. Part of the ride takes you through an area with Bison. When Derek saw them he yelled "Bison, bison! I didn't know there would be BISON!" Who knew a buffalo would make the kid so happy.
