Trip to the Zoo

OK so out of nowhere the lion walked right past the glass- caught me off guard, but the kids went nuts over it!!!! Love those fun memory moments!

This is a favorite spot to take some pictures at the Alexandria Zoo (LA). It is a jeep that has a sign on the side...we shoot with film not with bullets. Notice Jonathan's face in the middle- no idea what he saw but he was oooing over it.

Here is Jonathan saying Lion over and over again. How cute!!!
So there is this random chair in the Lion viewing area...our kids love it...so here are some pics...Joshua....
Andrew......
Elizabeth...
Love the massive tortoises eating lettuce.

And of course you can't go and not feed the 100's of fish....catfish and Koi fish too. They are so fun to watch! We love it.

It was sooo hot glad we went and got there early. Afterwards we stopped to eat at Texas Roadhouse (one of my favorites), then to do a little shopping, then home to get into the pool for a bit. What a great day off! Saturdays in the summer are our days of rest :) Couldn't be more thankful for so many blessings.

We are now into our 3rd week of summer camp and I haven't written much about our ministry, but I will try this week. It is amazing what God does here....and how HE works in our lives, but more importantly the lives of sooo many children! Blows me away every summer. What a privilege to be a part of something so HUGE!
