Father's Day 2007

Today we decided to go to the zoo for Father's day. First thing first though, we opened presents. As we already knew, Miriam got me a spring jacket...which happened to be exactly what I wanted. Isaac and Olivia bought me some Lego....I am sure we all can play with. Isaac and I already built a house, a milk truck and a tractor this morning.

We finally headed out to the zoo around 10:30. We got there and got right on the train since it was getting close to lunch time which is immediately followed by nap time (of course Olivia slept through the entire trip).

After the train we had a picnic lunch and enjoyed watching the snow monkeys, lemurs and lions from our picnic area.

Isaac was then extremely "interested" - one might say insistent, in going to the playground so Miriam and I packed everything up into the stroller and we took the express route there, taking turns pushing as fast as we could. But as you will see, we did not make it in time, Isaac had already fallen asleep by the time we got there. Of course, as soon as we left the zoo and got to the car Isaac woke up asking why we did not get to the playground.

So we decided to go to the playground by the house and resume the nap later. All in all, we had a great day...but did not get many pictures....here are the ones we did take.
