Minnesota Zoo

Yesterday we met Aunt Jess, Uncle Joe, and Conner at the Minnesota Zoo and we had a BLAST!  It was so much fun.  The kids are pretty little yet, but they still seemed to have a great time.  I think they liked to watch all the kids and people as much as the animals.  There was also a splash park there we didn't know they had and they both loved the water.  Next year we will be more prepared and then they can really get wet!  They were both very good and were pretty sleepy by the end.  I think the adults had a really fun time too!  I think we are definitely going to make this an annual event.  I can only imagine how fun they will be next year!!  It was one of those days where it just made me so glad that Avery has a cousin so close to her in age.  It is so fun to watch them together.  They are going to have so much fun together over the years!!

Don't know if she was more excited to see the water or the other little girl

More water - she looks like she wants to drink it here

Conner was nice to share his rings with Avery.  It didn't matter she had her own, she wanted his!
