These pictures are from the zoo trip today. We had free tickets from the summer reading program that expire at the end of September. The good thing is that the Phoenix Zoo opens at 7:00 a.m. in the summer. We were there not long after that and on the way home by the time it was warming up.
We've been reading a lot more about some specific animals and it really increased the kids' interest in the animals. We had a nice time and we even used our free carousel tickets, too. Sadly, the only animal I got in any of our pictures was the duck from the water play area. The kids got totally soaked but even at 9 in the morning, that felt really good. I was on my own with the kids so the camera didn't come out much at other stops.
We're preparing for The Schut Family Vacation next week. It takes a week to plan and pack and a week to unpack and re-settle I've come to realize... so the one week event turns into a 3-week deal. We're looking forward to some fall weather... and the kids are looking forward to a village of cousins!
