We had a play date at the Zoo this past week with our Ward. There weren't very many families that showed up, but we decided that was good because it ended up being really difficult to keep too big of a group together. Alyssa sure loved having some of her church friends at the Zoo with us. The St. Louis Zoo has free admission, but there are a few things that you have to pay for inside. One of the Moms that came with us was able to get free tickets for all of us to do some of the stuff you usually have to pay for(Her in-laws had a membership that was about to expire that they let her use for the day). One of the things that we got to do with the tickets was this goat petting zoo. Ashley was not afraid of the goats. She kept getting right in their faces. I was a little concerned that she was going to get her nose biten, but it never happened.
This was another part of the zoo that you have to pay for. Alyssa loved petting the snake. Ashley did too, but she preferred to squeeze it which I'm sure the snake didn't like.
We also got to take a ride on the train, which we have never done before. The girls loved doing that. The little boy in these pictures is 3 weeks older than Ashley. We're pretty close with their family so these three play together all of the time. They act more like siblings than friends.
We were a little nervous about Ashley sitting so close to the opening, but the three of them had fun sitting back there together.
It was a perfect day to go to the zoo. The humidity was low and the temperature wasn't unbearably high. We ended up seeing a couple other families from our Ward later in the day, but didn't even try to stay together with them.
