Zoo Trip

Tuesday we went on a little outing to the zoo here in Des Moines. We decided to take advantage of our year membership there and it was a beautiful day!! It's kind of a tiny zoo, but was even more so do to the fact it was under construction.

Careful, these caged animals can be dangerous....hard hats definitely required and a safe distance must be kept.

Seriously we saw about 6 different kind of animal. 2 bald eagles, a few penguins, a llama, some goats, a tiger, two river otters, and a cage of monkeys....

oh and a deere and another fierce looking cat. haha=)

Took about 20 mins to get through the whole park. Daddy topped it off with buying everyone ice cream on the way home! A prefect little two hour excursion on a normally boring ole Tuesday.

cute little baby goats we got to see. 5 days old and pooped everywhere. Eww

Cason was having quite the conversation with this goat. Cason would scream babble, the goat would say naaaaa and Cason would laugh hysterically. Must have been a pretty funny joke.

The river otters put on quite a show for the kiddos......seemed a little starved for attention. Poor things. Probably some of the only kids they have seen in the last few months of winter weather.
