Field Trip to the Zoo

Leah's Preschool teacher, Mrs Dance, takes her classes on a field trip to the Zoo every year.  Eva and I were excited to go along too.  I love going in the spring when it is cooler because more of the animals are out and active.  We caught up with my friend Michelle Riley and her two girls Emma and Evie and had a fun time tooling around.
The girls all loved feeding and petting the goats.  Good thing I remembered to grab a few quarters on our way out the door that morning.
The male lion was out and strutting his stuff in the enclosure.  We were excited to see him awake and active versus the snoozing lion we normally see later in the summer.  I tried to get us with the lion, but alas, it was not to be.  
Eva and Evie ( too confusing sometimes) just loved brushing the goats.  This mama goat was kind and patient enough to hold still for them.  Eva loved the baby goats but they kept running away from her and the brush.

After our fun day at the zoo we enjoyed a picnic lunch near one of the playgrounds.  Yeah for preschool.
