The Zoo

Last Friday Madi was out of school and we had cabin fever really bad, so I decided to be brave and take the kids to the zoo.....by myself. I had never ventured to downtown Boise and Cody is so very unpredictable but I was feeling adventurous. So we ate an early lunch and off we went. I knew it would be cold, but ya know what?? It didn't matter. That's how bad I needed to get out of the house. We ended up having a really good time. Cody had a few "moments" but it was ok because we were outside and actually there were only like 2 other people there, so whatever. He was more into chasing the canadian geese. He didn't care to much about the animals he was more worried about his spiderman guy that he insisted on bringing, but, He did like the spider monkeys. This was taken in front of where the Zebras and Giraffes were suppose to be. A lot of the exibits were empty and all the little drink carts were closed. I'm guessing they'll be back in the Spring.





Along the way we passed by a tortoise that looked a lot like Madilyn.



I spy a Praire Dog and a brown eyed girl. This was Codys favorite place. We had to come back to this one several times.


The Lions and Tigers were our favorites. What a fun day!!

You are sooo lucky to go to the zoo. I wish I was there because I love tigers & lions. Cody is sure looking all grown up. The praire dog almost looks like a kitty. I am excited to see you next week. Take care, Love Grandma O
