Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

Went to Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs with Nicole, Rebecca, and our gaggle of kiddos. It was so fun -- such an AMAZING zoo!
The kids got to feed the giraffes. Way cool.

Riley was an awesome, napless trooper -- she had a blast just taking in the sights.

The kiddie crew.

Nicole and Rebecca (my twi-hard besties).

These two cuties are just days apart!

Riley got some out-of-stroller time to stretch her legs.

Canon chases fake fish in the stream.

This sprinkler was one of his favorites.

I thought this porcupine was HUGE! And very cute.

Lunchtime!

We got to ride the carousel -- one of Canon's favorites.

Tanner holding the playground's snake tongue.

Curoe crew.

Look at those muscles!

Such a great little group of buddies.

Riley and her adoptive-big-sister, Ella Lou.

Canon the chameleon.

My beautiful hot mess.

Face paint time!

The Cheetah pack!

Ella Lou's butterfly.

Canon was a little too timid for getting his face painted (because it meant he actually had to look at the girl who was painting him) so he compromised on a snake tattoo on his arm. :o)

Feeding the parakeets!

Canon got to pet this little baby Wallabee.

The end of a very fun day. Naps ahoy!
