Lets go to the Zoo

We woke up yesterday morning and decided we couldn't just sit around at home. Chris and I are dealing with a few things right not that are very hard for us, and we needed to make sure the kids had a fun day, and at the same time take our mind off of things. So we decided to load the kids up in the van and go to the Valley Zoo here in Edmonton. It isn't very big, nor that exciting, but the kids like it and we always have fun while we are there. We had an extra child as well. Abigail's best friend that has moved to Saskatchewan is here for a few days, so lucky Abigail had got to take a friend. We did loose Owen for a few minutes and it was so scary. We had kids paired up and his partner just let him go. She said he kept trying to pull away, so she let him go. We were not too happy and she never told us he left the group until we found him. I am so greatful we found him. The train distracted him and caused him to wander off. It wasn't long that he was gone, but long enough. He was happy to stay close to mom after that. It scared him a bit when he realized he didn't know where we were.


If you look close at Humpty's leg you can see
he has a broken leg. Poor Humpty, must have
fallen off and the kings men haven't put him all
back together again!!!!


This is at the petting zoo and they are trying
to catch some kind of bird.


A shark about to eat everyone!!!!!
