We hadn't been to the Minnesota Zoo in a few years and I was anxious to do something with the kids the weekend before school got underway for the year again. We discussed a few options at home and decided the zoo would be as good a place as any to spend Sunday, August 1. So we headed out. As Macy was driving toward the cities, I mentioned a few other options that we could do instead of the zoo, including Valley Fair. She didn't say much and Emily and Daniel were watching a movie and hadn't heard me talk about other places. I made the mistake of asking as we got closer (and I took over driving)... Daniel was all for Valley Fair. Emily didn't have a preference and Macy was set against it. She was ready for the zoo. Either place I drove to, I was going to have a mad child. From the picture above, you can guess where we went and which child didn't want to be there! Sorry, Daniel... next time you can pick!
And of course if you want really awsome pictures, hand the camera to Macy! Most of the following pictures were taken by her.
I love this picture of the fish. It makes me want to enlarge it to poster size and hang in on my wall. Maybe enjoy some Parrot Bay Rum while gazing at the picture...
Just a fun picture of the three siblings huddled together admiring the brightly colored fish that swim by - and keeping an eye on the shark! By this time Daniel had decided to have fun!
