First trip to the zoo!

Our good friends the Frey's invited us to the zoo with them.  Matt wasn't able to go because of his work schedule, but I loaded up the two kiddos and met John, Brittney, their son Eli, and their nephew Cameron at the Dallas Zoo for a morning of fun.  Here are some pics from the kids first ever trip to the zoo.

Love this picture of the boys looking at the elephants, they remind me of Alvin, Simon and Theodore!

Noah watches the giraffes

Sammy is less impressed....

Feeding the giraffes some lettuce

Spying on the cheetahs

watching the lions

Sammy wasn't going to miss her morning nap just because we were at the zoo.

Noah's first pony ride (courtesy of the Frey family) -- he *loved* it, the pictures don't do this justice!

Feeding the coy fish

Ducks!

Inside the petting zoo, spending some time with the goats.

The boys enjoyed this bridge by the duck pond ....

At the zoo playground, Noah told me, "These eggs are funny, mommy!"

John shows Sammy some animals

Attempting to capture an image of both of them on their first trip to the zoo... this was the best I could get ;)
