Zoo Trip



Today we thought it would be a great day to go to the zoo. When we went to the zoo earlier this summer, both Jackson and Aubrin were disappointed the lions were gone because a new habitat was being built for them. We were finally able to get back to see them today. It was a bit chilly, but we bundled up and headed out. We were excited to see that the zoo was decorated for Halloween. The whole front of the zoo was lined with pumpkins, scarecrows everywhere and different displays made out of pumpkins and gourds. It was very festive for this time of year. Of course we headed straight to the lions. It was nice that we were able to get so close. Jackson and Aubrin were happy to see them back. After that we enjoyed the rest of the animals as well. It was cool out, so many of the animals were out. It was also feeding time for many of the animals.


Aubrin rode on a carousal for the first time. She has never shown an interest in them before especially because I can't go on them (motion sickness). Todd talked her into going and she loved it.


On our way home we stopped at grandma and papa's house for lunch and a short visit.
