Last Sunday we took the girls to the Memphis Zoo! We had to go to Memphis because our flights to Disney World were out of Memphis, and we knew the zoo would be the perfect excuse to get us there!
Thankfully, my brother, sister in law, and niece came with us and we enjoyed a day full of sunshine! We grabbed lunch as soon as we arrived and spent the next several hours looking at animals and walking around the zoo.
I have heard wonderful things about the Memphis Zoo, so I was excited to go!
When we lived in Indiana, I loved taking Gretchen to the Indianapolis Zoo and I had heard Memphis was so much better!
Addy Pearl was trying hard to be a big girl and when she saw the other girls climbing up to see the animals, she decided she needed to as well!
These girls are my heart!
Megan loved seeing all of the animals! She kept saying that we were going to the jungle and not the zoo!
My brother brought his wagon, and the girls ditched our stroller for it!
I loved that Megan was holding on to her little sister!
Our group walking through the zoo.
Adalyn took a little spill out of the wagon, so we broke out the Ergo for the rest of the trip.
They loved looking at the dragon.
Then we took a little train ride around the farm animals!
Megan was a litte afraid of the noise from the train when we went through the tunnel. She just covered her ears and was all good!
I loved spending the day with these girls!
We were all exhausted after our zoo visit, and ready to get to the hotel! We told the girls that we were staying in a hotel and that we might go visit their other grandparents the next day. They were totally okay with that excuse!
Gretchen found a worm while we were waiting to get back in the car; it may have been her favorite animal!
After we left the zoo, we headed to the hotel, took advantage of the evening appetizers and drinks, and then went to dinner. Once the girls had baths we all went to bed and anxiously awaited their Disney surprise the next day!
Looks like a lot of fun!
