the zoo

monday, owen and i went to the zoo for the first time this year. we are members, and last year we went probably 3 times by now. so i felt like we should just start going when we have a couple hours to take advantage of the membership. here's some pics from our day...

from the butterfly exhibit, which we had to pay extra to get into and the moment we entered owen wanted to leave. i managed to snap about 10 shots while he dragged me through to the other door. what a waste of $2.50...



while in the butterfly exhibit, he realized what he really wanted to do was ride the carousel. again, which we needed to pay extra for, but look how happy he is!...


last year the dolphin show was on hiatus, so this was the first visit we were able to catch a show. thank gawd for $4 popcorn. i don't think we would have made it through the 20 minute wait for the show to start without it...

and a couple shots from the show...

i guess that is enough for now. tomorrow we are going to go see toy story 3, which will be the first time owen will be in a movie theatre. i'm already planning for the biggest bucket of popcorn they have. i'll probably need to take out a small loan to pay for it...
