A day at the zoo

I'm about 99.956% sure that we were the only people without little kids in tow at the zoo last weekend but that did not stop us. The Boise Zoo may not be quite as fantastic as lets say, the San Diego Zoo. I don't know though considering I have never been there. But since the last time I have been to the Boise Zoo, they have made some serious renovations and have added so many new animals! 

The butterfly exhibit was amazing! It was probably Brendan's least favorite part and his face when they landed on him speaks for itself. We figured out they must be attracted to white because anyone inside the exhibit who was wearing a white shirt was covered in them. At first, my  mom would freak out whenever they landed on her, and then the longer they stayed the more she eased up. 

They also had a brand new wallaby exhibit and one of them had a baby in its pouch. Cutest thing I've ever seen! Brendan was fixated on seeing the lion until he found it lazy in the shade. I learned that his future plans involve catching/stealing a baby lion and raising it himself. Good luck with that one Bren! My mom's favorite were all the monkeys and Nic's favorite were the penguins!

As for the rest of the experience, I'll let the picture overload speak for itself...

 Biggest bunnies I have EVER seen. 

And naturally they are all huddled around the food bowl.

This little boy marches right up to Brendan out of nowhere announcing that HE wanted to ride the tiger and wanted Brendan to get off. It was too funny!
