A day at the zoo.

This past Sunday I had some quality alone time with Jaxon. We dropped Kiley off at grandma and grandpa's and Scott stayed home to study for his PMP (which he passed BTW! Yay Scott!). So Jaxon and I headed to the zoo. It was their last weekend of the farm being open and they had Scarecrow alley, which I thought Jaxon would dig, but really all he cared about was finding that darn monorail and getting on 'the train'. We had to do a little pretending before getting to the train though. We pretended we were with Dora on one of her adventures. We told the map to help us find it. The map told us to go through the forest, over the bridge, and past the bears.

And that's just what we did.

We stopped along the way of course when we got distracted by our ultimate goal, and when Swiper the Fox was trying to get our stuff (we didn't let him).

And we did go out to the farm on a tractor ride. I thought Jaxon would love the petting zoo area. Nope. WE had to get right back on the tractor because the tractor did not take us to the train. We had to get to the train!

You can even see it in his eyes here. Mom. Seriously. Where is the train?

We saw some camels. And these cute little Prairie dogs. And we finally made it on the train... the perfect end to the perfect day!
