First Family Trip

We went a few weeks ago to East Texas.  We were able to stay at the family house and make day trips.  It was perfect for a busy toddler.  However, the Texas weather did get hot so we came home early. 

Here's a few pics of our fun time. 

 Loaded up and ready to head out  : )

Our first stop for ice and drinks.  We made like 4 stops on a normal 2 hour trip.  I tell ya busy toddler  ; )

 One of the stops was to Tarjay (last minute run for diapers, mom forgot...oops).  Daddy picked up a shirt for his girl's love of $e$ame $treet.  So sweet.

 Wonderful daddy

Once we got to the house we unloaded and set up for the night.

We woke up bright and early for a country breakfast and a trip to the Lufkin Zoo.

This was Little Missy's first time to a zoo and she loved it.

 Mommy and daddy loved this place too because it was not crowded and we were able to get up close to many of the animals.

 The only thing between us and the flamingos was a rope, no joke.

 Peacocks were EVERYWHERE!!!  They would walk down the sidewalk with you.

 Checking out the turtles.

 Lizards

 Monkeys or as K likes to call them "daddy" because he always calls her his climbing monkey, HA HA!!!

 My two loves with the Alligators/Crocodiles, not really sure but love this pic

 I think daddy got a lesson on them  ; )

 They had a huge bird cage.  You could walk in and see many species of birds.  SO fun.

 Train!!

 So the peacocks were close....

 very, very, very close

 On her way to the lions, tigers, and giraffes, OH MY!  They did not have any bears.

 A small pond divided us between the giraffes.

 Peacocks  : )

I think Kendalyn knows every animal at the zoo.  She will be well prepared for school in August.  Now we need to work on colors and shapes, it's the important things in life that you need to know about  : )

 What a great family time!

Love!!!  On Zoo Day, Kendalyn turned 16 months old!!  Happy Birthday Sweet Girl! (post to come) 

And the best part of the trip....K was sick the week after we got back ; (
If every trip is like that we won't ever go back!!  HA!!
