At the zoo with six grandkids under the age of six

Here I am with Esther (2)  on the carousel
Amy (4) Annabelle (5) & Rylee (3) get ready to say goodbye
Lena (almost 1) with Christina.  
Ezra 11 months was a good sport even though it was getting hot. 
Everyone had to get a drink from the Lion's mouth.  
Rylee, Annabelle, Amy & Esther enjoyed the polar bears. 
It was fun to catch their expressions when the polar bear swam by.  Amy loved watching it. 
Esther was really excited. 
The girls watching the rhino eat.  Usually they have their back to me while I am trying to get a photo to record the experience. The  Hogle Zoo does a good job of making places for kids to see the animals. 

I rode up with Ben and it was fun to visit up and back.  He is a good sport and Ezra reminds me of Ben when he was a baby.  It was fun to see Ryan & Christina.  They drove down from Logan in part to celebrate Lena's first birthday which is next week.  Jenny came up with Annabelle and was at a conference while we went with Ben's family to the zoo.  Ryan's siblings met them there too.  Great time had by all.
