Zoo

This year we decided to purchase a season pass to the zoo. Talmadge absolutely loved every time we went. It was an awesome deal at $90 for 365 days. It allowed our our family of 4 plus a guest access each time we went which is great since adults are $9 and Talmadge would be $7 per visit. We quickly paid it off with all the visits we did during the summer. My brother Bryan was our number one guest. I was so glad that he was able to come with us as much as he did. He might of gotten tired of the zoo but never told us he wouldn't join us if he wasn't busy with school. Thanks for coming with us Bryan, you are such a good sport! Talmadge loved having a fun buddy to hang out with.

This year was a great year to purchase a season pass since so many animals had babies. I was talking to one of the zookeepers and they told me this year they had more babies than they have ever had with 11 species having little babes.

The tigers had 3 baby boys cubs which is a lot for a tiger.

The giraffes welcomed a new one to their herd. This actually happened on one of the days we happened to be there. Talmadge's cousins from Washington were there with us so that was pretty cool!

This is the coolest addition to the zoo. This elephant is in her twenties which is pretty old for having her first baby. It has taken 3 tries to conceive and she was finally successful and able to bring an adorable little baby girl to this earth. This little elephant is my favorite attraction. She is so cute to watch.

This was such a hilarious site. These two black bears were tussling and I've never seen this in real life. What a site!
