Oklahoma City Zoo

With very little planning, we decided to take the kids to Oklahoma City, to visit the zoo & Omniplex & then we zipped back home. The zoo animals seemed to be still in winter mode, so a lot of them were gone or hard to see, but the kids weren't disappointed.

This is a picture of what Jack found interesting at the zoo...which was pretty much anything BUT the animals! We were constantly dragging him out of the bushes, the leaves, the mud, the trees, off the rocks, the hydrants, the fences. The boy is a boy and he could feel the call of nature and it was saying "Climb! Run! Get muddy! Feel the Earth!" He's never been much of an animal lover anyway...but how he loves to experience the great outdoors!

Ava enjoyed her first trip to the zoo...never complained & loved to watch everything happening around her.

Lily walked her little legs off! She never got tired & rarely wanted to be held. The funniest thing was when we'd come up on a drainage grate...she would NOT cross it, like cattle won't cross a cattle guard. It was hilarious to watch her problem-solving skills at work...she would stop, sometimes throw her arms up & want to be carried across or she would scoot around them, looking for the edge to go around it.

Macy & Lily loved the animals.

This is a picture of a gorilla giving Macy a kiss through the glass.

And last, a picture of Macy in front of macy's...which she thinks she was named after.
