So last Monday (not two-days-ago-Monday but the Monday before) Nana and Pa took Jeffrey and me to the Knoxville Zoo. It was Jman's first-ever zoo experience, and when we got home he said "it was the best day of his life".
Here we are at Black Bear Falls.
* I don't know about you, but when the word "fashion" pops up, my mind does not immediately jump to the zoo... :) Sometimes function trumps style (and for good reason), so please forgive my slightly-off outfit.

They have a kids' corner at the zoo... and guess WHAT?! There is a carousel! Don't you just love that word? Carousel, carousel, carousel...
Don't judge me pretending I'm five again. Just pretend with me because I know you want to.
Gorillas have big hands.
Hey, look, it's a curious monkey :)
Okay, so now I wanna know... Do you guys like going to the zoo? And do you have a favorite one? I went to the one in Washington D.C. once and it was really cool. I bet the one in NYC would be fun too... maybe that would be a fun thing to add to my bucket-list. :) Looking forward to hearing from you!
xoxo,
Ireland
Love the Knoxville Zoo. Going to the D.C zoo next month and can't wait! Love you and the Jeffrey too. Aunt Teresa
ReplyDeleteLove you too! Have fun in DC!
DeleteThe only zoo I've ever been to is the Louisville Zoo in KY. My family had a membership and we would go just for a few hours as a field trip and look at whatever we were learning about in science. But we would also pack a lunch and go all day a few times.:) It also has a little water park in it open in the summer that's fun for the little kids to play in (I'm too big for it now).
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so great.
DeleteJeffrey didn't have swimming trunks on and he was really disappointed when we found that Knoxville Zoo actually had a water area. But he was good in a couple minutes, back to having fun :)
We have a zoo about an hour from us that we used to go to occasionally. It wasn't very big, but we always had a lot of fun!:)

Ireland, It was fun to do the Knoxville Zoo with you and Jeffrey. Love it that he says it was the best day of his life. I love your pictures and this blog!! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nana :)
DeleteIt looks like you and Jeffrey had a great time! :D And I like your button up top.
ReplyDeleteWe have a zoo in my town, but it's fairly small, though we do have cute red pandas! :) I went to the Sacramento zoo when I was ten, and that was a blast.
Thanks, Paige! There were some red pandas at our zoo, but by then I was too exhausted to see anything else.... :)
DeleteI love the Knoxville Zoo! I am glad Jeffrey had a special day. I love getting to watch younger siblings experience new things. :)
ReplyDeleteThey are so cute when they're excited :)
