On Friday we went to the zoo. It was the perfect day for a zoo trip. The weather was nice and the zoo wasn't too crowded. It was weird going on a day off. Usually the other groups there are mom groups or school groups, so there's a lot of kids and not many adults. But this day, the adult to child ratio was much higher, which lended for a much more peaceful atmosphere. :)
Emma and Naomi looking at the "baby" snakes. Awww, so cute...
I'm not really sure why, but they had a tiger skin out for us to pet. the kids liked it.
Naomi especially liked the fluffy tail.
Our zoo has a cougar, but it is almost never out. The rare times you can see it, it usually just sits there, so having the cougar out and about was a pretty big treat.
Here the cougar is passing by Daddy and Emma. Naomi and I were in an enclosure in the middle of the cage that you take a tunnel into so you can have a closer look at the cougar.
If that glass weren't there, this would really freak me out.
The sea lions never disappoint. They seem to be the most active animals at the zoo.
Naomi took this picture of the polar bear. And that concludes our Thanksgiving festivities. Well, except for that we have now set up our Christmas tree. We stopped by a friend's house after we got back from the zoo, and they already had their Christmas tree up, so Naomi insisted we put ours up as well. We waited until the next day since Kurt wasn't feeling well, but it's up now. Christmas is in full swing at our house.
