Since school has started again, we are making a conscious effort to spend time together as a family doing something Carter enjoys. So today, we went to the zoo. It was cool and uncrowded, and Carter had a blast!

Carter and Daddy walking to the car - what a big girl!

The giraffe was right in front of us at the fence, and Carter was amazed with him!

Halfway through, we took time out to play on the slide! Carter fears nothing!

The playground was so fun, Carter didn't want to leave! So she and Daddy took one last slide ride, and we proceeded on.

Carter and Mommy enjoyed the silly sea lions swimming around the pool.

Poor goat! Look out - she'll get you! Just ask Sammy!
The indoor exhibit of the Lynx was neat - he was sitting against the glass, and Carter could easily see him. She giggled and smiled at him the entire time!

Holy shit! This kid goes to the zoo more often than anyone else I know. Before you know it she will thing she IS a goat... instead of a ginger!
I think you need one of those large kitties in your house!
