Today we spent the morning at Zoo Boise with Ashley, Spencer and Emma (oh wow I just realized we didn't take any pictures of that adorable baby girl). It was a great time, the kids really enjoyed visiting all of the animals. It's been a LONG time since we have visited the zoo. Shae and Spencer even had the chance to pet a boa constrictor---don't worry they didn't jump in the exhibit! An employee had the snake out for the kids to pet. Payton was busy reading the map and directing our every move so she missed out on the chance. She loved being the tour guide.

Here Kitty Kitty Payton taking pictures of the animals---can you guess what she captured?? I think it is the meerkat.

I wrestled them for a picture this is our imitation of the monkeys
