A day spent at the zoo.
My mom and I packed the boys up and headed to the Atlanta Zoo
last week in celebration of Spring Break.
Roger took the morning off from work and met us there,
so we were all together on a weekday, which is rare.

I have a compulsion to hug animals that could scratch my face off.
They look so cute and in need of some lovin'.
The animals that really did me in were the Pandas.
Look at that little Red Panda, it wants to be friends.
Oh...and thank God there was a barrier
between me and the Mama Panda
because I just wanted to curl up in her lap and suck my thumb.

The best part was watching the children experience it all.
Koen was fascinated by every single animal
and wanted to linger and point and squeal.
It was almost like I was seeing it all
for the first time with him.
The world seems so much more delightful
when you see it through a child's eyes.
Griffin was too excited to stay still
and was running to the next habitat
before we were done with the first one.
It was the perfect way to spend a sunny day.

my daughter is obsessed with pandas. Wait until I show her the little red panda. That's awesome! Looks like the boys were having a fantastic time too.
I feel the same way about wanting to hug those cute animals that can scratch your face off. Your son is so cute and excited too.
We did the same thing on our break last week. It was so fun! Love your zoo shots!
I am so excited about us getting Panda's over here later this year in our zoo. sounds like you had a great day :-)
We pretty much love anything soft and breathing!
How fun! Cute photos!
Happy Spring!!
Great Zoo shots!

Stop it already, Leigh. You're making me want to have a better attitude toward the zoo!
Just precious. I love that you said you like to hug things that could rip your face off! Because that's just what I think! Never mind horses and kitties. I want a polar bear!
Wow...what an AWESOME Zoo!! Great shots.
Thought I would join you this week.

We love visiting the zoo. The kids can't wait until it warms up so we can go back there.
Love the zoo!!! I drag my big kids there from time to time...LOL

Such Fun!!! I love the zoo :)
I love the zoo! I feel like a big kid when I'm there.
I LOVE going to the zoo with Lil Duck! And it never fails that she finds and animal and stumps me with asking what sound it makes. No doubt I've warped her education by making stuff up *grin*
What a perfect day :) Great Pics!
Wonderful day with pictures to match!
=)
I do love the zoo - I need to remember to go early this year before the heat really sets in!
Looks fun!! :)
My daughter is on spring break this week and she really wants to go to the zoo too.
