Turtleback Zoo...

Jason is still working on his Africa trip pictures, so at some point in the near future we will have a post on his trip, but for now we will keep moving forward.

We took the kids to Turtleback Zoo in August for a family day. I have heard many good things about the zoo over the years, but have never been. It is about 30 minutes from our house.

It was one of our hotter days of summer, but we sweated our way through and enjoyed our time together.

Our first stop was the train in honor of Sammy and Stephen, our nephews who LOVE trains! It was a short little ride, but Brayden enjoyed it. At the end we ask the engineer to take his picture with Brayden and he proceeded to pick Brayden right up and pose for the picture. It was so cute!
All Aboard!

Some animals that stood out to us were the HUGE python, the outback aviary, the farm pig, the big cats, the bald eagles and the prairie dogs.
Such beautiful colors!
That is one BIG pig!
Leopard
Cougar
Sarah loved that she could get so close.
Brayden's favorite.
We saw the cutest little prairie dog poking out of his hole.
