Detroit Zoo

Since the weather was so very nice today (not as hot as the last couple of week - 30C but only 26C) I decided it's time to do something fun again... not that we don't do fun stuff every day, but a treat for both of us by skipping the nap/work time at home and leave for the zoo after Zoe woke up in the morning. I'm very strict with not going out in the morning since her nap time gives me some great time to get work in. But since I worked on the WE in her nap time we had to treat ourselves today big times :).
We had a friend that was going to the zoo as well and met up with her and her daughter plus her nanny kids (she's a nanny). The kids had a blast:
Posing for the cameras:
Zoe loved the tiger a lot:
The Rino's... too lazy now to look up how they're getting written *lol*
Giraffes:
Talking to the animals *lol*...
She enjoyed it a lot:
The best part the 'train ride' back to the entrance... Missy threw a fit when we had to get off the train and wanted to get back onto the train *sight*...
Somebody was tired after this day... well... she 'missed' her nap so she smuggled one in on the car ride home. She hasn't slept in the car for months now...
We had a GREAT day :). We really have a great life... this week is another busy one ;). Well even if my weeks start out without anything planned, I can fill up my days fairly quickly and we're on the go every afternoon. There is just sooo much you can do with kids. Oh one very funny thing. When I entered the parking garage from the zoo... 80% minivans *lol*. BTW, we'll get our minivan by the end of this month :)... We buy it in another state since it's not available here... Frank will drive my car down and trade it into the new one *YEAH*...
