Our day at the ZOO

Thursday was a beautiful fall day, a perfect day to go to the zoo, so that’s what we did.
We packed up our things and headed to the Little Rock Zoo.

I was so excited for five different reasons.
1. It was Eden’s first time to the Zoo and couldn’t wait to see her expression when we saw the first animal.
2. My BESTIE Hannah got to go with us. She lives in LR now, which is just 2 hours away instead of four. YES!
3. Ashley my other good friend also came with us. She has a little girl named Addison who is so precious. I even got to hold her. Addi just melted my heart. I love holding little babies.
4. The 4th reason is kind of selfish but, I haven’t been to the zoo in a long time and couldn’t wait to go myself.
5. The 5th reason just made me jump up and down. The Zoo has one of the oldest Carousel rides unlike any other I’ve ever seen. This is one of Eden’s most favorite things to do, ride the carousel.

So, when we go to the Zoo the first thing we did was ride the carousel. Eden was so excited and daddy was more then willing to ride with her.

Eden could do this all day if we let her.

When the ride finally ended she wasn’t to happy.

That is until we saw our first animal. HAHA, ok she was really excited, but she also hadn’t gotten all her nap out.

The lemurs

This guy was huge!! He was climbing everywhere. It was so fun to watch what he was going to do next.
This is our lovely group. I really enjoyed going with everyone.
Can't we as parents all attest to this picture?

After the zoo we said goodbye to our friend Ashley and Addison and headed back to Hannah and Tyler's apartment. Which is so cute by the way!

We talked for awhile while Eden slept. We really enjoy their company. They are so sweet.

After Eden woke up, we went to eat some really good pizza.

Let me just say that even though Eden got a small nap... it was not enough for her.

We decided to take a picture anyway after a long day at the zoo.

This is what the outcome was.

Even with all three of these things, we had an amazing time.

I can't wait till our next trip to the zoo.
