Zoo with Gimmie

On Fridays I try to do something fun with the kids.  Something for them, not just me (like going to the gym or running errands).  Doesn't always happen that way, but I try!  So this morning when Sofia asked to go to the "z-o-o zoo" (guess we spelled it in front of her one too many times), that's what we did and Gimmie came along with us.  It was a HOT one.  I was dripping in sweat by the end of the morning and ready to head back home.  Whew.  We packed a lot in, too! Saw lots of animals...the monkeys were a favorite this time.  The rest of the animals were mostly in hiding from the oppressive heat! We did a carousel ride, played on the playground, petted the goats, and took a train ride.  I called it a picnic train ride since we ate our lunch then :)
