Weekend Snapshots

Welcome once again to Weekend Snapshots. My link-up is off to a slow start but I'm going to stick with it because I like sharing what we've been up to without having to think up "relevant" or "unique" posts, which will drive hoards of traffic to my blog. Of course that might have something to do with it... In any case, I hope you join us this week or in the future. Just link up a post with a few pics of what you've been doing and please include either a text link back here or my handy button (code in the sidebar). You know, to drive hoards of traffic to my blog. Just Kidding. Sort of.

We hadn't been to the zoo in quite sometime, but after renewing our membership we headed there for a much needed chat with some animals. We are so fortunate to live within walking distance of the zoo. A long walk, yes, but a walk nonetheless. We spent most of our visit in the barn and garden area.

This isn't milk! It's just water!

The boys could not stop laughing uproariously at this sheep trying to kiss them.

The charming teenage docent told us all about how these geese have been bred to have downy feathers and so can no longer fly. I found this much more interesting than the boys did.

They were too busy checking out the alpacas.

I was impressed at the wonderful improvements that the zoo had made to the butterfly garden. A picture doesn't do it justice.

The link up is open all week.
