Steamy hot day at the zoo

A few Tuesdays ago the kids and I braved the heat and went to see the giraffes. Okay, so Mommy really was the one excited about it. We started at the bird show, saw the giraffes (kids weren't impressed and it wasn't feeding time for another 1.5 hours), ate a quick lunch with the Talins, visited the bears, and finally landed back at the playground and splash pad. It was unbearably hot so we left sweaty and tired but I WILL get them back so they can feed the giraffes!

Don't they looked thrilled!?

 

 

This bear was no dummy

 

 

The golf umbrella comes in handy even when not raining
