Zoo

We went to the zoo today with our friends, the K family. We don't hang out nearly enough anymore due to our crazy schedules but when we do - watch out... TONS OF FUN!

Daddy Piper had work today = WAHOO! So off we went for a day of fun. It was an abbreviated trip due to Art lessons at 1:30 but fun nonetheless.

Right now we are having a argument about who is better - girls or boys. L and I think girls ROCK but the 3 boys think they rule. Well we know who is right, don't we?!?

So back to the zoo fun. I even let J out of his stroller to walk around some. That walking stuff is fun when it's new, after 30 years, I wish someone would push me around in a stroller : -) When we got to the zoo, the monkeys were soooo loud. They were putting them into a cage thing to clean their island and they were not happy about it. It was great to hang out with the K family. The K girls are getting so big. KK is talking amazingly well. SK is as adorable as ever. Her and L hugged upon sight of each other. The weather was a bit warm for November but we managed okay. We saw the giraffes, walked by those noisy monkeys, and headed for the farm. Everyone wanted to pet the goats. The messy, poopy goats. A quick stop to milk a pretend cow and into the goat pit we went. I hate that nasty part of the zoo but the kids love it so we do it. L & S got to comb the goats and J was down walking and touching the goats for the first time. After the goat (gross) experience, we went to the little farm play area. J got to get down and play there too. L & S got to run around and be wild, just like they love to do!

Ok, after fighting my daughter over the last of the cotton candy, I gotta get some kids in the bath.
