family zoo trip

Keri and Addie had the day off of school Monday for MLK Day. We decided to take a family trip to the Dallas Zoo. Jack and Dianna (Pop Pop and Nanna) gave our family zoo passes for a Christmas present this year and we couldn't wait to use them!

We drove to Plano and parked our car, then boarded the DART. The kids enjoyed the train ride.

The trip took over an hour by train so I think next time we will just drive. We stayed entertained by looking out the window, snacking, and playing Angry Birds-the kids love this game!

The kids were so happy to be at the zoo. By the time we got there we only had about 2 hours before closing. So we went to see all the "big" animals-giraffes, elephants, etc. The kids loved playing in this jeep in the African Savannah area.

It was a nice, cool day and the zoo was beautiful-so many pretty trees and plants. We had a great time and can't wait to go again soon!
