Zoo

Pearson was insistant on brushing at least one animal at the petting zoo. A few of the animals had red collars on, which meant that it was a good idea to stay away from them. But, there was at least one "red" animal in every group of animals. So, we were patient and finally found a goat that was standing alone.
This is Pearson's new smile. I really don't like it, but this is all you get after you say, "Pearson look at me. Look at the camera" a few hundred times per picture.

Here are all the kids in our group, eighteen in all. We were one of those annoying groups who block the sidewalk with all their strollers. Oh well, everyone has to be one of "those people" every now and then.

Parakeets

The blue ones were beautiful.

This picture cracks me up. There are about five more kids behind Pearson and Ryan waiting (patiently, I'm sure) for their turn.

We finally got all four kids in one picture!
