spring zoo day!





what a great day for the zoo. nice and breezy and just after spring break so not TOO many field trips ;)
We hosted playgroup today at the National zoo and got to see so many great sights~


The orangutans walking across the ropes to the think tank right over our heads!!




training of the baby elephant





pandas, tigers and lions and we got up close with the prairie dogs and turles.


(did you see the alligator?)


And on the way out, a close encounter with the wolf who guards the lower gate;)


Woo hoo for a cooperative group today!


(did you notice Rebecca hoisting 3 kids at once to see the lions- so funny how our kids almost always seem to want to be with the other mom!) they did this amazing 'Roar' just as we got there- perfect!


Madeline demonstrating her orangutan skills on our way to the parking lot...
