Hogle Zoo!

Tuesday morning we were off to the Hogle Zoo! The kids were in heaven at the Zoo!!! It was our first time going & it was for sure worth making the trip. We hit it at just the right time so it wasn't busy & once we made our way all the way thru the kids wanted to go back & look at a few things again & hardly anyone was there- it was great!!

watching the waterfall, patiently waiting to go in :)

The gorillas :)

Carter liked looking at all the bones {elephant} & which animals they belonged to

Big nest!

Daddy & Tenley with the BIG giraffes

Carter & Tenley both were shocked how big giraffes actually are

The tiger sat right up in the window behind us, so awesome!

The kids love the big turtle at willow park, so when they seen this HUGE turtle they had to have a picture :)

All the lego structures were amazing!

wanted to ride it over & over & over!

The carousel was definitely a hit, good thing its almost carnival time :)

Swinging monkeys they watched forever :){Tenley will even tell you "the baby monkey peed on his hand, & then ate it"}

The rhinos were kind of in the distance but Carter loved the rhino!

Watching all the sea critters, I think this was one of the coolest parts about the whole zoo. being about to sit down in & watch all the animal swim. The little sea otters were fun to watch, doing flips & going back & forth right by the glass!

After we looked at each animal, the kids loved posing in the structures!

Riding the rhino :)

throwing money into the water fall {making a wish}

Love these guys! Such a great weekend!

We will for sure take the kids back again next year. They loved it & so did Justin & I! Thanks dad for the fun weekend getaway!
