The real motivation to go the zoo was for Super Hero day, to see Spiderman and Captain America. But because the lines to see these two heroes would require a heroic amount of patience from a four-year-old, we elected to forgo the picture op. Thankfully, Little Buddy was too excited about seeing the animals and Uncle C to be bothered by missing out.
This picture was taken right before I fell off the back of the ladybug statue!

One of my favorite parts of today, watching the trainers feeding the elephants! He threw an entire giant sweet potato, football-style, into her mouth.
Sadly, a tired Little Sweetie was not as impressed by the elephants. But she did look cute in her elephant outfit!

A boy and his uncle on a carousel!
And a girl and her daddy! And a Momma who got to stand on the sidelines for once and take pictures!
It was a wonderful trip! We finished up our excursion with lunch with C and A at Torchy's Tacos, a beloved downtown taco destination that Daddy and I hadn't been to before. They were pretty tasty! The rest of the day went well too, as both kids resisted the curse of the zoo and napped when we got home! A total miracle! A truly great day!
Good night,
