Going to the Zoo

In Michigan City, IN there is a nice zoo that we have so much fun visiting every time we go. It's not a very big zoo, but that makes it a little bit nicer. There wasn't a lot of people there so we could take our time looking at the animals. The zoo has a lot of different animals for being so much smaller than most zoos. There is also a little petting zoo! The 2 year old liked petting the Llamas, he would pat their head a say "nice boy". So cute! The older boys thought it would be cool if they could catch a peacock, but sadly they did not. We were able to see a baby snow leopard at the zoo. It was so adorable and it came right up to us (behind the glass of course!). We did a lot of walking and it wore the younger ones out, when we left the zoo they fell asleep quickly in the car. I'm so very grateful that we were able to take the kids to see and experience things we don't normally get to do.
Beautiful Bald Eagles, they are such gorgeous birds.

The oldest in the eagle nest, we didn't know it was that big!
