The Zoo

We have a membership to the Dallas Zoo, and I LOVE taking the kids to the zoo! During Spring Break, I packed the kids up, and headed south to spend the day looking at the animals. We always pack a picnic lunch and have a good time.

Jackson and Lauren ready to see the animals.

The new giraffe and elephant exhibit was finally finished! It was awesome!

The cheetah came right up close!

Shaking hands with the chimps!

This trip, Jackson wanted to ride a camel. I was shocked! Normally, Jackson gets a little scared of things like riding the camel (that's his momma coming out in him). I thought for sure that I would pay the money, and he would get scared. He shocked me and LOVED it!

Look at that smile!

He grinned the entire time he rode the camel! He loved it!

Jackson, the camel rider!

Lauren was all grins at the zoo.

We stopped and played on the playground. It was too crowded, so I moved the kids along pretty quickly.

Instead, we rode the merry go round. Lauren wanted to sit on a bench.


Jackson rode a horse.

Another fun day at the zoo!
