Well, the youth and children's ministries at church took a schools-out field trip to the zoo last Thursday. Rick was off of work so he met us down there with Eli. We had a fantastic time (other than the heat)! We saw monkeys, tigers, flamingos, gorillas and even fed a giraffe! Take a look at the pics!!
It was so cool! Yes, we actually touched the giraffes!! Eli ended up with a stuffed monkey in honor of his first visit to the zoo and he is now called monk-monk. :o) We had such a good time. Even though it was hot, Eli just chilled in his stroller and enjoyed. Although he did get kind of scared when he saw the monkeys... (See 2nd picture!) They were swinging and yelling at each other! SO COOL!!
