Mother’s Day

We did Mother’s Day a little differently this year and, oops, skipped church. I wanted to stomp around Cougar Mountain Zoo with the family, so to be home for naptime, we went out there Sunday morning.

This is a very small zoo and advertises itself as a training zoo. What I like about it (besides the great views on a clear day) is that we can see all the exhibits in a few hours. (We went to Woodland Park Zoo twice this week, and between both visits, probably saw almost half of the animals.) Another point of interest about CMZ is that what they lack in real animal quantity, they make up for in statues.

One day I will write a post entitled “Ode to a Green Stroller”. I love this stroller that much.

We bought apple slices to feed some of the animals. No Fear Piper feed the alpacas by hand. Kyla threw food at their feet.

Isn’t this a cute bench?
