We decided to get a Zoo membership this year. What a great idea that was! Nicholas gets so excited every time we go. We've made 2 trips already this summer. The first trip was with our MOMS Club. Then, a week later, John took the day off to have some fun with us.
Nicholas LOVES the elephants--especially since we got to watch one PAINT a picture on our last trip (I included a photo of it below). In case you were wondering, the painting starts off with a "spray painted" background via the elephant's trunk (yes, it could be quite messy if we weren't on the opposite side of the protective glass). Then, the elephant picks up a paintbrush in his trunk and and with a few brush strokes ... TA-DA! ... a masterpiece has been created.
