Zoo-ing It!

Although I had different plans, my daugther reminded me it was Family day at the zoo (provided free by Hubby's work).






I just included a few of my photos of the day out, but we had a lot of fun.  My fitbit racked up the steps too.

Hubby's work provided the entrance tickets, parking ticket, a free backpack (for each of us) that contained two free ride tickets (each), a refillable cup with a coupon for a free refill, and they provided lunch indoors, including ice cream, family photos (funny ones too), snacks, and a raffle.  The girls (we took three kiddos) had a blast. 

We now have an epic family photo that is so funny to look at.  We all had the day off, and even remembered to pick up chicken feed on the way home.

The girls all had starbucks gift cards, so we went through there, so they could all get themselves a coffee before returning home.

Hubby and I spent a bit of time on the porch before we headed off for a quick motorcycle ride (we had planned a longer one, but oh how we forget how tired we can get walking around all day, ha ha ha ha!).

What a great thing for the company to do. It does sound like fun and free is always more enjoyable! LOL! Thanks for sharing your pictures too! I have been to a zoo since my children were little.

Sam I Am, we saw an orangutan that was covered under blankets. A few days after we were home, we saw on the news he was very old and died. So sad. I am impressed with the zoo overall. Lots and lots of walking for sure. We'll go back again. The kids loved it, even at their older ages.
