The Zoo

On our way home from Cannon Beach, we stopped at the zoo to stretch our legs and give the kids a chance to see the animals.  They loved it!


 Grandma and Haylee.
 Jack's method of looking through the telescope.
 Katie and Mitch checking out the giraffe.

 Rachel told us that New Zealanders call redheads "'rangas" because their hair is the same color as orangutans.  Chad has taken to calling her Ranga, and now our kids refer to Rachel almost exclusively as "Aunt 'Ranga."  Thankfully, she's a good sport and agreed to get her picture taken next to a picture of one 
 What is Haylee so excited about?

Why, the black bears, of course! :)

So, this is my last CB post.  Whew!  That was a lot of blogging, but now I feel like the hundreds of pictures we took are organized.  Yeah!

Man oh man! You guys packed a lot of fun into that trip. I'm just a teensy bit jealous of the teacher schedule this time of year ;). So glad you got to make so many great memories as a family!
