Caught in the Rain

Yesterday the kids and I took a trip to the zoo. They are so happy there- Asher and Hannah ran around and were in such a good mood the whole time! They genuinely like getting out of the house (though they do well here too, most of the time), and they both love animals. Buying the zoo pass was such a great choice for our family, and we more than get our money's worth every year!
The zoo currently has a Lego exhibit going on called Nature Connect. There are about 7 Lego statues around the zoo, most of them in the middle of the zoo, and they are impressive! I'm going to include some pictures from our last visit too- I took better pictures of the models then.
We did awesome for quite awhile, but when we sat down to have our lunch that I packed, the sky was dark and gray! It was almost time for us to leave, but then it started raining. Thankfully the kids thought it was fun, and didn't mind getting wet (well Hope didn't love it but she survived). We ran to the jaguar exhibit which has some inside animals, and then found a table with Legos that was under cover. There are apparently two, more extensive areas of Legos we will be checking out the next time we visit.
It was still raining at about 1pm, and that is past Hannah's naptime! We decided to brave the rain and hopped under cover whenever we could. Of course shortly after we arrived at the van it stopped raining, but it is now a fun memory! Love these kiddos and that I get to stay home with them!

They like to "weigh" aka measure themselves on this board, which, if we didn't have passes, could get us in cheap!
