My brother Todd, from Jacksonville is up for a week so we let the kids stay home from school to spend the day with him. We decided to head off to the Columbus Zoo..and yes...we brought our own monkey's!! Corey loves the sea life and this picture of him with the Sting was so cool!!
This is Uncle Todd, Ella Grace, Sarah Kate & Corey outside of the lion's den. Sarah Kate and Ella kept saying.."come here kitty". If they only realized that "kitty" would eat them in a moment's notice!!
As you all know, Ella is not mine by nature, but we love her all the same. It is very natural to take her with us as a family because in so many ways, she is a part of our family. She has loved teasing "Uncle Todd" as she refers to him.
Here are our monkey girls on a sharks back. These two have become like sisters. Despite the fact that they act so much alike, they get along very well and love each other very much.
Corey loves to go touch the snakes...unlike me or Todd. He must get that from his dad. He sees something new everytime we go to the zoo.So, despite the fact they missed school, I would still say that it was a day of learning. Not only about the animals, but of each other as well.
