Hoogle Zoo

Our homeschooling has tons of field trips set up.  I am so excited to share all of these fun places with all of you. This time it was to the Hoogle Zoo. The kids had fun and learned, and by the time we were done, I was DONE! Too much walking pushing the stroller up and down hills and trying to keep everyone together!#1 Girl brought a notepad and wanted to write everything from the signs down. The little ones wanted to run from place to place. Even #7 Boy wanted to take off in his own direction. Everyone really did have fun!

Bunch of Monkeys!

#7 Boy loved running away and didn't want to stay in the stroller, his bare feet were black on the bottom when we got done.

Love this one with #2 Girl and her shadow

Climbing on the statues is always a fave

#4 Boy getting eaten by the lion a drink

Watching the baby elephant swim

The White Handed Gibbon was one of the kids favorites.  The baby was super active swinging all over the place.

But, it didn't hold #7 Boy's attention...he wanted to play in the mulch instead

My Nest of Children

I love the expressions in this photo.  #2 Boy was covering a hole with his bottom that #6 Boy had been looking through.  As you can see #4 Boy and #5 Boy (and #6 Boy) think he is hilarious!

#7 Boy loved the Porcupines and kept taking off back down the row to see them. 

White Out Make-Up

Little Stinker...used white out as lipstick.  I could also smell some of Dad's deodorant on his lips.  Yes, he admitted to using it also as lipstick.  A couple of days later he had "painted" his finger nails with markers.   Oh those two year olds are Trouble!  But SO cute!

Kitchen Slip 'n Slide

It was that time again... my floor was NASTY...time to clean in the best way we know how!  We prepped the floor with some good H2O and a splash of bleach and let the kids go at it!  Loads of fun for everyone.

#4 Boy was showing how his shirt sticks to his skin, so #2 Boy decided he would show #4 Boy how his skin sticks too.  Silly boys!
