Max was playing in the dirt and fell face first into the dirt. We all got a kick out of his mask. Here are Wesley and Daxton relaxing before the Joust.Then on Sunday we went to the Hogle zoo in Salt Lake. We mainly focused on the animals that we don't have here at the Idaho Falls zoo.
We watched a pretty cool elephant demonstration.I loved how close we got to the rhinos. And watched the giraffes for a while.And the big apes.Here is Max and a squirell monkey
This little orangutan was so cute. he had his blankie and was dropping it into the pool of water below him. then pulling it up and sucking all the water out and doing all this while hanging upside down.
