The Zoo

Do you know what's really not awesome?  When it snows on May 1st.  Sometimes I hate the springs in Salt Lake!  Really, snow covered the yard before it was done.  Ugh!
But 2 days later, here we were at the zoo dressed in shorts and t-shirts!  The weather here is manic.  Anyway, the troops were up in arms after Peter got to go to the zoo on his preschool field trip because none of the other kids had seen the polar bear either, so since I had finally renewed our membership, and since the weather was beautiful and we had a free Friday afternoon, we went.

My little eagles.
The otters were lots of fun to watch.

Unfortunately, though, the polar bear was not.  It just sat there like this statue and did nothing.  We were all a little disappointed that he wasn't putting on a show like he did when Peter and I were there.  Oh well.  You win some, you lose some.  We'll go back and try again.
Jonas and Peter on the merry-go-round.  Seriously.  Could Jonas just give me a nice face every once in a while?
Amelia posed for the camera very well.
Now we're all excited for when the finish the next phase and bring the lions back.  In the meantime, the zoo is still one of Peter's favorite places to go so we will visit often.
