Zoo Day

Saturday Amy and I took the kids to the zoo to see their new bug exhibit.  I was a little bummed that you had to pay extra to get in to see the giant animatronic bugs, but I did think it was really neat and the kids loved it.  They had giant bugs and it was set up to make you feel like you were small with giant items around you like a giant picnic.  Reminded me a little of Honey I Shrunk The Kids.  Lol. Each bug did something different and there was interesting facts posted near each one.  Caden was really into the facts about each bug.  After that we went to see some real bugs in the new bug area at the zoo.  We really enjoyed seeing  some bugs I had never seen before.  We even got to see some ants in action cutting and carrying leaves down into their ant hill.  I thought it was really cool and so did the kids.  Since I have a membership we were able to get into the zoo an hour early and see some of the zoo keepers getting the animals and their habitats ready for the day.  They were very nice answering the kids questions and talking to them.  We had a great time and we can't wait to go back!
