The Hogle Zoo

As I briefly mentioned in my previous post, we went to the zoo with Derrick's family.  And my goodness was it a great day!  And apparently MANY others had the same idea as it was pretty packed.  But it was lots of fun!  I don't have much to say, but here are the pictures from the day.

Tried to get a picture of the two... this is all I got as Aaron decided to bail.  Poor Trae fell to the floor.

I LOVE this outfit!  And so perfect for the zoo!  I couldn't wait until Trae could fit into it!

Kind of a smile... He cried shortly after this lol

Both looking at another camera, but I'll take it!

Checking out the elephants.

This is what Trae did most of the time.  Which was great as when he woke up, he wasn't the happiest.

Family picture at the big elephant.

Aaron and cousin Ella checking out the monkeys.

This gorilla literally walked out to a perfect picture spot when we came up.  He sat down, picked his nose (super funny), and then left when we did.  He seemed to like us!

Checking out the camel with grandpa.

Aaron quite enjoyed this fire hydrant.

Derrick's favorite animal... wolves.  We will one day own a dog that looks like this.

Playing on the see-saw at the playground.

Thoroughly enjoyed the bridge.

The crocodile... not so much.

Going down the slide.

I was surprised he actually was brave enough to crawl through this tree trunk by himself!

And he enjoyed it!

Aaron loves trains... now says "choo-choo" when he sees them.

Playing with Aaron's two favorite things... a giant ball in water.

See that little girl glaring?  She really didn't like Aaron playing.. she kept shoving him and yelling at him.  Aaron didn't know what to think.  It was so funny.  Well, only funny because her mom kept telling her to share and eventually took her away since she wasn't sharing.  Nice to see a good mom!
