Saturday at the zoo with Daddy

Zoo Sunday

We drove in to DC this morning to visit the zoo with our friends. The kids had a blast, the elephant exhibit being the big hit of the day. We ate lunch at the Panda picnic pavilion and then headed home.

Reston Zoo

This morning we decided to check out the Reston Zoo for the first time. It's right in our backyard, so instead of driving all the way to DC to see animals, we drove 20 minutes to Reston to enjoy the wildlife.

Another visit to the zoo

Ben took some time off this afternoon so we could drive into DC to go to the zoo again. Last time we went, Owen was 9 months old. This time, he was much more excited about seeing the different animals. The best part was when we went into the gorilla house and the Mommy gorilla brought the new baby (8 months old) right over to the glass so we could get a good look at her. It was amazing to see them so close up!
