Family Day!

After all of the hard work around the house we thought it would be fun to spend some time as a family. Thursday was a beautiful 70 degrees so we decided to take Emmy to Reid Park and to the Zoo. I hadn't been to Reid park in a long time and boy has it changed. We did a picnic lunch and fed the ducks. Emmy loved it and was not scared of them at all. In fact at one point she was letting them take the bread from her hand or peering over the side of the pond so she could watch them eat it. It was so fun to hear her giggle when they would got after it. She would throw the bread that then tell the "quack quack's" to "get it, right there". They now also have a train that goes around the pond and in front of the zoo that was fun to ride.

As if that wasn't enough fun for an almost 2 year old, we took her to the zoo as well. She loved looking at the animals and running from place to place to see another one. She called the jaguar a kitty and even meowed at it. She thought the rhino was stinky, and as always loved the elephants. I have a feeling we will be going to the zoo a lot more often!
