Day at the Zoo

Yesterday the kids and I went to the Saginaw Children's Zoo with my friend Andy and his two sons...Nicholas and William. We all piled into Andy's suburban and all headed out to the zoo. The kids had fun looking at all the animals of course, and they got to ride the Merry-Go-Round as well...so that was an added bonus. We've been to the Saginaw zoo tons of times in the past. It's a zoo that survives on a grass roots level. It's small and only takes about 45 minutes to go through the whole thing. Yet despite all that Ben always enjoys himself there and loves seeing all the animals. And now with Megan the age she is...everything is practically new to her so she loves it as well.
This summer has been a busy one for us. It's almost August and this was our first visit to the zoo this year. Usually we've been 2 or 3 times by now...but not this year. Oh well...I guess it shows we're busy with other things. Anyway, I'm sure we'll get back to the zoo one or two more times before school starts.
