Zoo

Last Monday our family went to the Phoenix Zoo. Ava didn't have school (President's day), Brian was in town, and it was a beautiful day!
As part of my Mom's Christmas present to us, she had given us some money to do something together as a family - this is what we used it for - thanks Mom!
We had a really great time. It is especially fun to see how excited Dillon & Ava were to see all the different animals.

It was a real treat for the kids to be able to spend such a fun day with their Daddy.

Here are some of our favorite animals...

This is how excited Dillon got every single time we saw a new animal. This made the whole zoo trip worth it!

Dillon was a lot happier than he looks in this picture...

I thought this was appropriate...

Cute Ava...

Me & Dilly... (he really was happy that day...)

Brian took Ava & Dillon to Stingray Bay and they got to put their hands in the water and feel the Stingrays. Ava loved this - she thought it was so cool to be able to touch the stingrays - she hasn't stopped talking about it!
