Jen and I needed a way to end the summer with a bang. What better way then to load the kids into the car and head to the St. Louis Zoo. Even though the boys weren't very supportive, we loaded the van and were out of the driveway by 7:30. We hoped the girls would nap in the car on the way there seeing as though we had 3 hours but nope. After "losing our place on the map" we found the zoo. It started raining and we thought the trip might have been ruined but after 10 minutes, the sun came out and our day looked good. We got to see everything! We had a few minor set backs (running my toe over with the stroller and losing the nail, Jen losing her camera on the train - it was retrieved though, and the girls not napping but a combined 30 minutes the whole trip) but we loaded back in the van and got back into Normal around 7. We still can't believe how great all 3 kids were. It was a hot long trip with minimal naps and we had smiling children at the end. It is going to be an annual trip....just maybe during Spring Break??? Enjoy the pictures.
