Denver Zoo

   Our lives have been just way too hectic for me to get to blogging.  I also blame the fact that our poor camera had a bad run in with some water.  It is kind of working now, but was out of commission for a few days.  Of course, this was during our fun trip to Denver.  I had to use my phone for pictures and I just now got around to having Joey post them.
     Moving on...  I posted a while ago about our fun end of summer overnight trip to Denver.  We spent the second day at the Denver zoo.  I had not be in over ten years and most of the kids had never been.  The Denver zoo is incredible and we really enjoyed it.  There are all sorts of different animals that our zoo doesn't have.  They also had a really neat Lego exhibit going on with different animals made of Legos.  The kids thought that was pretty cool.   The weather was perfect and we had a wonderful day exploring a new zoo.  We definitely would like to make it a yearly trip!

A neat log to crawl through

They had some really neat play areas for kids.  This was a giant sand box that the kids loved.

This was the neatest water area that was basically a shallow little river kids could walk in.  The kids LOVED it.  

Moving water

So fun!

Gracie loves getting wet
