Quick update

The end of vacation quietly came and went. We vegged out around the house most days and got to spend some nice quality time with dad. Hayzel practiced his reading most nights.



We took advantage of our Kid’s Bowl Free tickets and went bowling.




We missed out on a few outings we had planned such as deep-sea fishing and Storyland, but overall we had a really good vacation.

Franklin Park Zoo

On Monday we met some friends at the zoo in Boston. It was a beautiful, sunny, hot day.  Perfect for a zoo visit.

 

The zoo has a temporary exhibit showcasing animatronic dinosaurs. Although short, it was really cool. Very life-like.

When we left the dinosaur park, we found some long lost friends we hadn’t seen in hours!

Hayzel joined them on a fossil dig and the age-old sport of climbing trees.

Afterwards, we went to check out more animals.

We took another short break to play.

And some more animals.

Can you tell it was hot?

Check out the Bengal tiger.

Yet another stop to play.

Then we stopped for some souvenirs. They have these things everywhere now, and we’ve collected some from 5 different places.

One last stop at the butterfly habitat.
