Omaha



We decided at the last minute this last week to go to Omaha zoo.  We started taking the boys when they were little and had routinely gone every summer.  Every summer until baby #4 came that is.  So we did not go for almost 2 years.  The boys were very excited to hear we were going.  They begin reminiscing about all the things they liked or remembered.  Sheldon and I had to laugh because the boys would of sworn that just dad took them to the zoo.  Oh and they had proof to back it up!  Mom was missing in all the previous years of zoo pics!  Well we were changing that this time, mom is in some pictures!

It was really a great day.  We got there shortly after they opened and spent close to 7 HOURS there!  Lots of walking, but lots of fun too!  Some of the kiddos favorites were:
  • The tiger with only 3 legs (this amazed the boys and they talked about it FOREVER)
  • The new Madagascar exhibit
  • The new Skyrider (ski lift type of ride to get great views of zoo)
  • GOATS (I really felt sorry for the poor things with our girls um "petting"  with sticks)
  • Sharks
  • Bears  (loved the polar bear, so cute & then there was this bear that climbed up this tree & stared at the kids who were posing for pics - he even smiled when they said "cheese"
  • Train ride
