At the zoo

Day 6

30 day project.

Without my phone, I would probably not let my boys play as long as they wanted to.

I bring a book or my kindle if I know we are going to a park but these unexpected play sessions are harder to predict.

Like them wanting to spend twenty minuets on the play boat at the zoo chasing bad guys.

They realized some animals were watching them so they decided to give them a show…

He is blasting his brother with his chest.

We never see the Jaguars on the inside enclosure part so this was a real treat!

This one decided to be nice and give me the shot I was waiting for!

New favorite zoo pic!

My boys and I at the zoo

This beautiful tree was all lit up outside our zoo when we went this week.

I decided it would make an amazing backdrop for a couple pics with my boys.

I handed my oldest the camera first (I like to live on the edge like that).

My oldest could not figure out what to do with my auto focus camera!

He has an older camera that is completely manual.

He has a little trouble focusing but does amazing at adjusting all the settings!

Blows me away!

He likes to take a LOT of pictures!

It was making me laugh.

Then my boys switched and it was my youngest turn.

When I want them to take some pictures, I set the camera to the settings I want and tell them where to stand.

He did a really good job focusing.

Checking out the chimps.

We watched the baby Jaguars for a long time!

They are so cute!

I want one…

One of the zoo keepers were walking around with a Kite.

My youngest tried to pet it.

Thankfully he stopped him before he lost a finger.

No, we do not pet birds of prey…

Make sure you get in pictures with your kids!!!
