Zoo, Again…

Yesterday we traveled to Indianapolis to visit the zoo!  We have never been to that zoo, and it was quite a treat!  The weather was warm and beautiful and everyone was in pretty good moods, at least until close to the end!! 

Teens had good attitudes.  Jadon was great!  Leah and Lucas are always agreeable, except when they are not!  LOL!!  Kiahna had a rougher time of things, once again.  But, we survived.

Jadon, Lucas, and Kiahna (cheese!!!) siting on a rock...

James helping with Kiahna...  he did very well yesterday.  Had a good attitude and did a great job of driving us there and home.  We only got lost twice!  And I was the one with the directions... note to self... next time I mapquest how to get somewhere... mapquest how to get back home from there too!!  AHH!!

Jadon was chosen to help give commands at the dolphin show!  We sat in the splash zone and he loved getting wet!  He was disappointed when there was a splash and he didn’t get any of it!  After his time up front, he was much more satisfied with his level of wetness!!

And for $1 Jadon got to feed the giraffe a piece of some food!  It was worth it!  He was a little intimidated by that big long tongue!!
