Boys at the Zoo

Monday morning I took the kids to the zoo. We got there right at 8am when it opened for a couple of reasons. First of all, it's not as crowded or as hot. But most importantly, the first hour the zoo is open there is FREE stuff! It's free to get into the St. Louis Zoo and our zoo is awesome. You can see and do a lot without paying a penny, but if you go during the free hour, you can ride the carousel, pet the sting rays, and go into the children's zoo, all for FREE!

Henry and Ben love the carousel, so therefore we rode it 3 times! We had never been to the sting ray exhibit, so we checked that out and boy was that neat. We were home in time for lunch with G, one of the added bonuses of living about 10 minutes from the zoo.
