the zoo!

this is one of the weeks that Jacob is with us for the summer, so I took a couple days off and took Sam and Ben out of school, so that they could spend the time together. and I figured why not visit the zoo! we also meet up with Sam's best friend Domenic and his mom and little sister. Sam loved seeing all the animals and hanging out with Domenic. Ben was just amazed at the animals (all of which he called "dogs"). Jacob had a good time too and was huge help pushing strollers and the wagon and just hanging out with his brothers. the funniest thing was Sam was super excited about seeing the dinosaur exhibit that we there for the summer. but right after I purchased tickets for it and we were about the enter the dinosaur path he wanted no part of it. I hand to carry him through almost the entire exhibit and he even asked one the guides, "how do we get out of here?!" it did rain some, so thankfully we saved most of the indoor exhibits for the end. all in all it was a good time!
