for the past few years our zoo has had a “family free day” which is awesome. we have gone the past three years, last year it was me, jarred, Mikayla, Sophia & jarred’s friend & when we were on our way there we came up to the zoo exit & saw the traffic backed up all the way on to the interstate so we didn’t actually go, but we tried. we went downtown & shopped thrift stores instead. ha.
I talked Shane & Mikayla into trying it again with me this year & it really wasn’t too crowded when we first got there but by the time we left it was pretty insane busy.
I love that the zoo does this every year…
I think my favorite part of the zoo were these Kaneko sculptures, I hope I am spelling his name right.?? I learned about this artist from my mom & her & I have checked out a lot of his sculptures that are in Omaha. I really think it is so cool that an artist like this has chosen to live & create here in Omaha…
Sophia’s favorite part of the zoo this year was definitely the carousel. it was her first time riding on one & she is for sure a fan!! love my cute girlies laughing on this thing. when Sophia started yelling daddy & waving to her dad as we would spin by him, that was just too sweet…
and Sophia’s second favorite… the goats. so funny to me. I love how simple it is when you are three.
