Wear your seat belt

I hope you can get to this. I am a firm believer in seat belts.

Miller Park Zoo

Ari and her three kids and Becky and two of her kids went with us to Miller Park Zoo. We were quite a train!!



The petting zoo







The kids got to pet a Madagascar Hissing Cockroach!


Holding the millipede





Our whole crew. We also had Hayley, who is the granddaughter of Jon's coworker! It was a lot of kids but everyone did great!




We got McDonald's to avoid hypoglycemic meltdowns and had a picnic. Then we hit the splash park. Jack was getting brave.



I guess Reese doesn't understand corn cob holders

Walking in Parklands
















Deer tracks! (Uncle Brian would be so proud!)
























































































Reese was a trooper! Her little legs just kept going! Unless there was something interesting to look at, of course.








Stopping to eat lunch
















We found a dragon fly that had just molted. The skin is beside it and then in my hand in the next picture. I had never seen that before!!


























































We had so much fun exploring. My kids kept taking pic of EVERYTHING so this is just a few. It started raining at the very end and we were very glad to see the van. Reese had to be carried for a little way because she said, "My shoes are tired." It was a great way to spend the morning!!
