This past weekend we took a trip to the Omaha Zoo with Brady, Ashley, Ava and Hudson. This was our first trip to Omaha and we really had a great time! The weather was perfect and it only took about 3 1/2 hours to get there.
For those of you who know "Dora the Explorer", here's a funny story. We have a portable DVD player for long trips for Lily so we decided to set that up for her. We are driving right along in the country while Lily is happily listening to her show with her headphones. All of a sudden, we hear her yell "MAP!!" (She was answering Dora's question of "Who do we call when we don't know where to go?") We about jumped out of our chair as she would do this periodically throughout the trip and we never knew when to expect it. It was a good laugh.
Lily had a great time hanging out with Ava and Hudson. The three of them got along really well. Lily loved all of the animals and each time we ask her which one was her favorite...it changes. First monkeys, then zebras, then elephants. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see it all...even after 5 hours! So...you will most likely be reading "Omaha Zoo trip II" next summer.
Enjoy some pictures of our fun trip.....
