Alexandria Zoo

It has been another week already. Time has flown right by.

We planned our trip to see all of the family back in Nevada and Utah for a few weeks in the summer. Everyone is excited to find out the whole family is coming (that includes Matt.) He generally has been left at the Post because of work duties. The tickets are bought and we’re ready to go…yet it won’t be for a few months.

We went to the Alexandria Zoo with Zach Saturday. It was our first time there and we struggled to find it. Once we got there-it was packed! We didn’t realize it was a planned event “Planet Day”. They had clubs, schools, Home Depot and other various places there for the kids. Zach enjoyed himself! He even wanted to take a picture with a police officer that was sitting on a bench and a BIG gecko (in costume).

It was enjoyable to watch his face light up when he got to see the different animals, especially the monkeys. I think it’s because Mommy can make monkey calls and he loves hearing it. (One of my very deep, dark, hidden talents that I don’t share with anyone…very often. Because you have to take it outside to do to make the correct call.)
