Our neighbor gave Rachel a trip to the Atlanta Zoo for her birthday. What a fabulous present and gift to us all! Not only was the zoo fun but her girls were a huge help with my kids. One of the biggest reasons why we hadn't been to the ATL zoo yet. It can be difficult herding two little toddlers around, but with Anya and Allie the kids got to hold hands, take turns in the stroller, and walk around. Whew!
Here the kids got to brush the goats and sheep. They loved this hand-son activity and were very gentle. Later the next week we got to go to Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia, SC and had a wonderful time there as well. Unfortunately I forgot my camera on this trip but the kids had an equally good time, ate there bagged lunches, and had a treat- ICECREAM! It was such a long and hot day that we all needed it before heading home. We hope to visit again in the fall when it will be much cooler.
