Back To The Zoo!

Grandma and Grandpa got here from South Dakota yesterday! Grandpa had to catch a flight and leave right away but we get to keep Grandma for a week! This is a win/win/win situation. Mommy can get some packing and organizing done, Brian and Spencer get to play with Grandma and Grandma gets to just enjoy being Grandma! Since we all needed to get out of the house while a realtor was showing it today, we decided to pay another visit to the Brookfield Zoo. With Grandma's help, Brian was able to take the ride on the carousel that he couldn't take on our last zoo visit.



The zoo has a big exhibit going on right now called Dinosaur's Alive. Today, Brian got this new "Mold-er-ama". For those of you who haven't been to the Brookfield Zoo, "Mold-er-ama's" are vending machines that are located throughout the zoo. They make a small plastic mold of the shape of a great variety of different animals while you wait. If you grew up in this area and went to the zoo, you paid a quarter for a Mold-er-ama. If you go to the zoo today, bring a few quarters because they now cost $2.00! It was a good $2.00 investment because Brian has been especially attached to it!

You know it's been a good zoo outing when this is the result during the drive home!
