Today instead of heading to a beach house for the weekend, we realized the weather was going to be better at home this weekend and stayed in town. We surprised Jillian with a trip to the zoo and it ended up being the Best Zoo Day Ever. The animals were full of play and antics. We saw a Polar Bear patiently waiting for a granny smith apple to wash up out of the water and finally saw him dive in and eat it! Then he played for quite a bit. We also saw lazy lions, met some fun people on the train, and watched a monkey shove a huge arm full of hay in his mouth and his buddy slap it out of his mouth and pat all the hay off of him!
Jillian got to spend a hard earned $5 at the zoo store and bought a small, soft wolf she named Tammy. John bought me a little sea otter with a starfish in its hands and is the same soft, small stuffed friend. (we secretly both thought it was cute, so sweet.)
So much fun and everything seemed to gel with the family. We all had a wonderful day and Jillian passed out in the car for about an hour on the way home. I love my crew.

We rode the train, too.
Sure hope so, Jillian looked kind of lonely there.
