At the zoo with my crew!

A few weeks ago we had to go to Topeka to get a birth certificate. I decided since we would be there we should go to the Topeka Zoo! So we went to get the birth certificate and then to lunch.
 
We found this place called Cheeburger Cheeburger, it was like a 50's diner and the kids meal came in little cars.....it was good and something different!
 
 
A couple group pics to start off.....
 
 
 
And we are ready to enjoy the zoo....and it was the perfect day weather wise. Nice cloud cover and not to hot!!!!
 
 
First we came to the Cougar, they are native to Kansas which shocked the kids. They knew we have cougars in Kansas but I think just seeing one up close and knowing they are in the Kansas woods really impressed them!
 
 
The river otters, I asked the kid how the Barbie jeep got crashed in there.....seriously something my kids would do!
 
 
Little Luke chilling in the stroller!
 
Did you really think she would just be sitting?!?!?! She was very good though! In and out of the stroller to see all the animals!
 
Here we are at the monkey exhibit....the cutest little monkeys EVER!!!!
 
Ducks....there were A LOT of ducks!
 
My favorite....the bear!
 
 

The girls enjoying the pretty fountain.



The hippo was having a blast with his barrel!
 
Me and Lukey!
 
Up close and personal with the lions.....
 
it was a little unsettling seeing my baby girl so close to something that could very easily eat her!
 
The King!


These things were kinda crazy!
 
 
Crazy kids!

 
Daddy....get off that limb!!!!!


Katelin!
 
Rylie!!!!
 
Not quite the arm span of an orangutang!


Hey....Chet's brother Chris is asleep back there!!!!
 
Giving a small donation!

 

 
We had a good time, the Topeka zoo is nice because it only takes a little over an hour to walk through it. It was a really fun day. Kids were good, Chet wasn't grumpy and just those two things alone make for a great day!!!!
