A dAY aT ThE HoGLe ZoO!

Last week was Fall break for my kids and on Saturday the weather was nice, so we decided to spend a day enjoying the zoo as a family!
Here is the classic zoo picture Grandma and Tiffy wanted to give it a try as well
Oh no grandma it's a SNAKE!!! The boys love teasing her about her hatred for snakes!

So cute this mom and dad monkey were keeping there baby warm between them! I happened to snap this right as the one kissed the other on the head! SO sweet!

"Oh No"
Grandpa's not scared
Taylor and the snake had a starring contest! Taylor won!
Hayleigh loved all the creatures that were down on her level!
Then we saw the Tigers "Roar"!
They had three new baby cubs! Born on June 2nd same as my mom!
Easton wanted to pose by himself and be serious!
On to the giraffes, they had a baby too! It was a busy summer at the zoo! Daddy and Easton and the black bear
After seeing all the animals we took a trip on the train! Then we stopped at the playground for a few minutes before leaving!
Hayliegh and I made nice with the huge spider
This caterpillar was so kind to let us sit on him for a family photo!
Taylor the turtle man!
Oh no, the spider didn't play nice with Easton and nipped him on the bum!
Thanks guys for the fun day at the zoo! It was such a nice day and we had a blast!
