We had the first free Saturday that we've had since before Christmas... We decided to go to the zoo in the snow while Jeremy represented our family at the Pro-Life march. We explained what it was to the kids, and why we support that cause, but Sam especially has a very gentle heart and wouldn't be able to face actually going to the march quite yet. I personally am mentally exhausted and need just a political and debate free head for a few weeks. Jer has some neat experiences that he told us after and me in more depth after kids went to bed. One of them is that there was a kid marching next to him that was supposed to have been aborted. It's heartbreaking.
While certain animals are hiding inside, some of them love it. Evelyn loved the snow leopard and the otter was sure having fun in the cold.
The lions found the only non snowy patches and were soaking in as much sun as they could.
Progression of a yawn.
I actually really liked watching the armadillos collect the hay and stuff their house.
We were talking to one of the workers about theses guys... She called out the turtle/tortoise expert and he told us all about Isma and Kronk. That was pretty cool.
I also thought it was pretty funny that they gave the wolf a bunch of cardboard boxes to chew up and shred. That's what all the dogs I've ever owned have done.
We were there at feeding time for the red pandas.
And I still love that they let their peacocks roam free. It makes it a little more interactive.
