The Fourth - Part Two

We had to start the 4th with our traditional family pose on the front steps

and a funny face : )

Then the girls thought they needed a shot . . .and Kate and Olivia thought that included them

the "big" girls

Then we headed for a fun day at the zoo

All the cousins ready to check everything out

Don't they just look like trouble waiting to happen?!

It's so fun to see these two becoming such good friends

We hit the penguins just in time for feeding

Checking out the snakes

These two are hilarious together: kindred spirits I think

"kisses"

posing with the "polar bear"

Olivia refused to join the picture

Kate insisting on walking

Then we hit what became our favorite stop of the day: the polar bear.

He totally plays to the crowd. They have a walk through in the middle of his swimming area and he would swim around and over us, showing off

The girls were glued. It was pretty neat to watch.

my next favorite? was actually the groundhogs! They're just too cute.

They had these fun pop up's that the kids could climb in and watch.

Addy & Olivia

Brynne & Kate

Loved the zebras

and giraffe's

As a special feature for the weekend, they were advertising a Dora "4D" movie.

Ava was super excited - ready to watch with Addy

Grandma and Kate

Daddy & Olivia

The girls all loved it. But we had to laugh so hard as we glanced at Olivia throughout the entire movie, this was how she sat.

Thanks for a really fun day at the zoo Grandpa & Grandma!

One last night to have fun being together

Until next year!
