Field Trip

On Friday Madi's pre-school took a field trip to the Boise Zoo, and Benjamin and I tagged along. I didn't get too many pictures because it was hard to keep up with Madison while dragging along a giant stroller...but here she is riding the carousel (arguably her favorite part of the zoo), and with one of her friends from class, Chloe. These two were hilarious terrors...at one point, her mom and I lost them for ten minutes when they ran off as we tried to haul the stroller up two flights of stairs. Honestly...who puts two flights of steep stairs in the middle of a public zoo? It was fun, though...and when Madi saw the penguins she told me we had to bring Brian there because he LOVES penguins! I will say that riding for two hours on a school bus full of pre-schoolers with a newborn is not exactly the funnest thing to do...I don't really recommend it, but the zoo was fun and it was nice to get out in the fresh air. Unfortunately the zoo was not as cool as the one in Taipei, or even the one in Kansas...cheap Idaho zoo overlords!
