Alexis first time going to the zoo!

On Wednesday Sept. 29th my parents came in town so all of us could go to the Milwaukee Zoo. We've all wanted to go but waited for the weather to cool down a bit. The weather was absolutely perfect! High 60's...totally sunny!

Before we went to the zoo, we all went to lunch at Fudruckers.
A huge, giant vulture!
Family picture by the elephants. The one behind us I said was dancing..she kept swaying back and forth. It was so cute!
Very pretty Jaguar! Every big cat we see some how reminds us of your cat Dakota!
The big lions were right up to the window just staring at every one. It was so neat! Their paws were like the size of Alexis head! Of course the lions reminded us of Dakota also.
The adorable Red Panda!
3 Giraffes. It was neat watching them eat the trees with their big, black tongues.
Alexis was such a good little baby the whole time we were at the zoo! She stayed awake most of it and as long as she could see everything she was fine and "talking"
My parents by the brown bears.
Grandma and Alexis! Alexis was determined to get my moms hair in her mouth! Do you all like Alexis shirt? It has all sorts of animals on it...I thought it was perfect for a day at the zoo!
I don't remember what this type of snake is and I hate snakes but this was so cool to watch this snake raise up like this! He even got higher after we had shut our camera off. Sooo glad it was in a cage!





We all had a lot of fun! It was also so nice not dealing with the crowds that we would have dealt with if we had gone on a weekend or in the summer.

Besides it being Alexis first time to the zoo it was also Kevins first time going to the Milwaukee Zoo. They both had a blast!
