Zoo Trip with Hilary and Noah

Hilary and Noah came up to see us for a couple of days.  We all went to the zoo together.  We had never been to the John Ball Zoo in Grand Rapids, and Eva had never been to a zoo at all.  We had lots of fun; here are a few pics.


 Before the zoo: Lena and Noah playing together.





 Lena checking out the pelicans.


 Noah liked them too.


 Having fun already.





 It was a beautiful day.


 Noah petting some wallaby fur.


 Lena hanging out in the caboose.


 Trying to catch a chicken.


 Eva wanted to catch one too.


 Petting a goat.


 Brushing a goat.


 Noah checking out the tractor.







Daddy and Lena in the birdhouse.





 The stroller brigade.


 Lena, Noah, and Hilary watching the monkeys.


 They have really neat flamingos there.


 We thought it was funny how this duck was hanging out in the shadow of the flamingo.


 Noah having a staring contest with a monkey.


 What a face!

 Lena found something that's actually meant to be banged on.


 The double-headed snake!  (Just kidding; it's two snakes coiled together. But it really looks like a snake with heads at both ends!)



The babes got pretty tired by the end of the zoo.


Who would have thought that riding around in a stroller would be so tiring?


We had so much fun going to the zoo with Hilary and Noah.  Thanks for coming up!
