Zootacular Bday!

Let me start out by wishing Aunt Cole a happy bday!! Today is her bday even though I'm going to write about mine! Pretty typical, wouldn't you say Cole? :-)

On July 3rd I celebrated my 30th bday, dun, dun, dunnnn!! I haven't had any 30th bday meltdowns, so I think I'm doing pretty good!

We spent the day with Nana, Papa, and Uncle Josh at the Glen Oak zoo and got to see the very cool Africa exhibit!

We started our day by getting to be right up close to a horsie (Ava and Reese's favorite animal)! Being close enough to touch it pretty much freaked Ava out and here she is still holding on to me.

We made our way over to the camels for a quick photo op

The girls really did think the Africa exhibit was cool, but they didn't want to spend as much time as daddy and Uncle Josh appreciating it, so you won't find many actually any pictures of the girls checking out the exhibit. Here's their favorite animal of the day.

Waiting on the guys...getting restless, but taking pics with Nana!

At this point Ava had informed us all that she wanted to go to Busy Corner and she was pretty much done!

And by now, we've hit zoo meltdown! Ava's pulling on my bag wanting to go and now I'm able to see Reese was just hanging out on her own...nice! :-)

The day ended with the girls chilling out and helping Josh on the computer!


Thanks for a great birthday!!
