1st Trip to the Zoo

Beau, GiGi, and I visited Whitney last weekend in Dallas and had so much fun. We took Beau to the Ft. Worth zoo, which is amazing. It was his 1st trip to the zoo, and he loved it. I was a little worried that he would be scared, but he wasn't at all. He soaked it all up.

Wow, look!! (or Yook, as Beau says)

Monkeys!

Gigi, Beau, and NeeNee checking out the elephants. There are 5 or 6 that live at the Ft. Worth zoo....impressive. We saw this one break apart a log and eat bugs out of it.

NeeNee, Beau, and Mama at the tiger den. Beau wasn't too keen on the white tiger that was putting its paw up against the glass. He was a little too close for comfort.


Per Beau, this antelope is a big buck deer. He says this followed by a very loud "BOOM!" Too much Outdoor Channel with Da! haha!

A big turtle was swimming in here.


Watching the flamingos. We spent a surprising amount of time here. Beau thought they were very entertaining.

Beau says to his Dad the week after the zoo trip, "Beau tell those ...mingos be nice!" They were fighting and it made an impression! It's funny what he remembers.

Lions: the most talked about animal following the trip. This lion got frustrated with his lioness and had a little huffing fit. Now instead of "roar," Beau says the lion goes "huff, huff, huff."

A real, live Razorback! This one didn't look extremely ferocious, but what do you expect at a Texas zoo? :)



We had such a fun day at the zoo! Thanks, NeeNee and GiGi, for going with us!
