Trip to the Asheboro Zoo!

Last Friday, my mom and I took the kids to the Asheboro Zoo. We had a great day, weather wise, and they were both so good. Per Brooklyn's instructions, we headed to see the elephants first. We had a great view of them and an even better view when the trainer started feeding them. They came up soooo close.

Posing on the elephant statue....Jake is less than thrilled. :-)

Soooo excited! Jake has no idea what Brooklyn is so happy about.

But then Brooklyn explained the zoo to him, and he got excited.

We spent about 2 hours wandering around "Africa," ate a picnic lunch by the van, and then spent another hour in "North America." By then, around 2pm, Brooklyn was spent and Jake just wanted to be held and snuggled.

Exhibit A:

But all in all it was a great day and I enjoyed spending time with my mom and kids before heading back to the office fulltime this week.
