Zoo Time

We decided to take advantage of our zoo pass this past weekend, so we took all the kids to Buttonwood Zoo in New Bedford. The zoo was all decorated for Halloween which made Grace very excited!

We had called Cole's Mom on the way to invite her, she happen to be available so she met us there! We were all hungry so we ate lunch before going to see the animals.

 It looks like Tigger is punching Grace in the face!

 Checking out the cows.

 Emma was not so sure about those cows.

 They had a cute little mini corn maze there. Grace was not impressed!

 After seeing all the animals we took a ride on the carousel there. The carousel is really cool and has all sorts of different zoo animals on it. We told Grace she could pick any animal she wanted to ride on. Yup, she picked the basic carousel horse that you could find on any carousel!

 After the zoo we took the kids over to the park right there.

We all had a great time. The kids were so tired they all napped in the car on the way home!

Zoo Again

This past Saturday, we decided to use our zoo pass and take the kids to Capron Park Zoo again. We only managed to get in a quick visit, but after an hour the sky just opened up and it poured out! But until the rain started we had lots of fun!

I dressed the kids in animal themed clothes, because I'm dorky like that, and decided to try to get a group shot before heading to the zoo! Why I even try is beyond me! 

 Bahaha I love the look Emma is giving Carter!

 I think Carter was just stretching, but it sure looks like he's sick of listening to Emma blab on and on!

 The zoo signs always make me laugh!

 On Sunday we took a quick trip to Castle Island, where we got rained on again! I didn't take many pictures there, just a few of the little diva before we left!

Capron Park Zoo

Yesterday we got everybody ready for the day, signed Grace up for swim lessons at the YMCA, then we all went to Capron Park Zoo. Our Buttonwood pass also gets us in there for free! We loved this zoo, it was cute, small, and clean!

Checking out the goats. The zoo had little vending machines where you could buy handfuls of food to feed the goats, ducks,and llamas.

Slothbears, which are just so cute!

In the picnic area there were this little ride on things that Grace just loved!

Feeding the monkey rocks.

The zoo also has a super cute splash pad! Next time we'll have to remember our bathing suits.

After the zoo we stopped home to grab some food to cook on the grill and then went to Grandma and Papa's house to swim and cook!
