Last Saturday we decided to skip working on our yard and house and spend the day at the Detroit Zoo. It was such a beautiful day! 
So we went to see the tiger first.
This time, Zach went up with Rachel. I missed the shot, but a prairie dog came right up to Zach and was pawing at the glass.
Zach came out and said “that little fella wants me to hold him!”
Zach loves the cotton candy at the zoo. Ok. I’ll admit it, so do I.
I still have vivid memories of the first time I ever tasted it as a child—blue cotton candy at the Ice Capades in the Salt Palace in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Meg was a great sport. The zoo is maybe not her very favorite thing at this age. She might have liked it better if our zoo had her favorite animal….pandas. She dressed like one though.
He did open one eye for a second… 
They were so “human-like”. The father and mother—cuddling, but always aware of the location of their little one.
We saw four polar bears—they were really active and fun to watch. 
He was so afraid he would fall in…even though Shae has a firm grip on his legs.. 
(Too bad the Wings lost since this photo was taken…)
and we were once again reminded how quickly time flies by.

So cute. Meghan is looking so grown up, without glasses she is going to look older and very pretty. Wish we could have gone to the zoo with you.

Wow! How fun is that? How cute pictures too. We've got to make a trip to MI sometime. That zoo looks awesome!
It sounds like that is a great zoo. You got some cute pictures. We love going to the zoo. The thought of going in the tunnels for the praire dog exhibit makes me closterphobic. I'm sure kids love it but not my idea of fun.
What a fun day for you guys. I still want to come out and go to that zoo with you guys. We are getting so excited to see you guys!!
Wow...look at those little sweeties. What a great picture to have and cherish! :) I am glad you had fun and was able to take a day off. :)
Your zoo looks like it is pretty fun. I usually am not a fan of the zoo. You kids are so cute, I am glad that you guys were able to take a day off and go have some fun as a family. :)
oh Crap, that picture makes me feel REALLY old! Why did those cute little things have to grow up! I miss Mae Mae and Rae Rae!! Its been so long, I almost don't remember what that place looks like! Here's hoping I can take a picture on the picture rock some day:)
Looks like a lot of fun! I am with Megan I wish there were pandas at the zoo too! They are all getting so big!
Aww. That last picture just melts my heart. How sweet and little and they just change so fast! I love the pic to Meg, she looks so beautiful in her "panda" attire! I don't really like prairie dogs but maybe seeing one up close would be worth popping up into one of those tunnel things! Way cool!
