montgomery day trip, part 2

after playing we went to lunch and then to the zoo. libby has been asking for over a week to go to the zoo every time we get in the car! when we got there, tim stood in line to get the tickets and i took the girls in the gift shop. we could hardly get them out of there for the main attraction! libby found these little figurines she loved and hannah found some stuffed snakes. when we did make it through the gate, we went to the bird exhibits first. libby's most favorite was the bear. she stood and watched him for at least 20 minutes, and probably would have stayed there all day if we would've let her. hannah said she liked the giraffes the best. my favorite was seeing the elephants eating in the area where they take them after they're done for the day. we thought we missed them but stumbled upon them there on the way out. after we'd seen all the animals and rode the train, we played in their great playground area.
