Oklahoma City Zoo

We were able to squeeze in a visit to the Oklahoma City Zoo on March 4th, as we neared the end of our trip. This first picture, a naptime moment, was too cute not to post!
Meeting new "friends"......
Piggy-back rides!

Self- explanatory :)

Smiles from Liz in the stroller
Reading about the gorilla
Lots of walking time

Mommy with her little girls
The four matching sisters......
......and the six brothers

Carson & Rebecca reading about the grizzly bear

Best friends! Denver, Taylor, & Liz
the tiger
"Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all his work which He had made."

Oh Wow! How are you all? It's been ages since I last heard of you! Did Alli get my last letter?
These pictures are wonderful! I really like visiting the zoo, and when we were little there was a huge stone mammoth and we used to climb on its trunk. It's not there any more =(
