Week 4 Day 7 - June 11th - Zoo time.

So our day sort of went as planned. We started out with them not getting up until about 8:30, almost 8:45am. We hung around for a bit. We got dressed and headed out to do some things. Since it was still a bit early we did our grocery shopping first.

We got everything we needed including some snacks for the zoo. We brought home the thing that needed to be packed up and we left. While we were getting groceries we also got our mail, not much in there. **I should note that I'm pretty sure the grocery store was happy we were gone. Q threw SUCH a fit that he even made me mad. I was surprised, but I guess that's what this 2 year old will do ** Once the cold stuff was in the fridge off we went again to see if we could find a case for my new phone and then off to the zoo. (BTW no luck on the case)

Wow was the zoo ever busy! I was shocked! We did see a funny sight. When we first go to the zoo we were walking up the path to the front gates and I saw a group of about 5 to 6 boys and 2 male leaders. They went over to the bushes by where the TTC picks you up and started to stand about a foot and a half apart. It wasn’t right away but I soon caught on that all of them were peeing! Oh. My. Gosh. I really wanted to take a photo of all these boys backs but I just couldn’t decide if it was an ‘ok’ thing to do.

We hit up the membership office and about $275.00 later we were done. We now have renewed our membership until June of 2010, renewed our parking pass just as long, got the cards laminated (an extra cost of 2.00 each but WELL worth it after the last cards) and a pack of 5 passes for $95.00 (which doesn’t sounds good but considering that will get in my parents, brother, sister and her husband for $95.00 instead of $140.00).

Then we were off to the zoo. Here’s our photos from there:

*oh and this is all the buses! I wasn’t kidding, there were so many more when the other bus moved. I was surprised!


The boys are now home and napping, well Q is but not Kyler. I guess we will see how this afternoon goes if we have a campfire or not.
