Getting warm enough for the zoo



We had a beautiful day in Salt Lake City yesterday. It started out a bit chilly but it warmed up to high 50's. We decided to go to the zoo late in the afternoon. It was fun to be outside together. The zoo was closing in an hour so some of the animals were already in their cages, but it was still fun to walk around in the warm sun! Cruz had a marvelous time running around like crazy. We brought the wagon but he didn't want anything to do with it, unless it was to help push or pull it! We did see the giraffes and Cruz was trying to imitate their long necks and how one was walking, it was pretty funny! Cruz had a great time climbing on all the statues and running like crazy. There was one tiger that was pacing back and forth in front of the glass window and that was pretty cool! He would walk right in front of Cruz....Cruz kept trying to pet him!!!

After the zoo we met Marc, Tim, and Carrie at Este for some great NY style pizza....we love that place so when we are on that side of town we usually try to have some! Cruz was completely pooped by last night. I should have taken a picture of his pants and body. Dirty from head to toe, but I think he loved every minute of yesterday!!!


Look how close that tiger is!


Having fun climbing on the statues!


Helping mom push the wagon


Cruz trying to be funny by hanging off the back of the wagon when we were walking, he can be such a little turkey sometimes!


This water ball is at the entrance to the zoo. He was so excited to see and touch the water ball...he was totally giggling!
