Trip to the Oregon Zoo

On Wednesday we took the children to the Oregon Zoo. Our group included both grandmas and my sister Corey. I haven't been to the zoo since Jack was a baby. There's so much to see and do. It was a warm day, but we got there early and bought lunch. There was also a really neat dinosaur exhibit that included moving, life-like dinosaurs. Will liked the T-Rex best and Jack preferred "the one with the long neck". I think he's referring to the Brontosaurs.

Family picture of Team Peppmeier (amazing, everyone is looking forward and smiling), too bad the stroller bar blocks Annemarie's face. What a great day at the zoo!

Wow! The Oregon zoo is very pretty--lush green plants. While I'll always support the SD zoo, it's nowhere as green as the OR zoo!! Looks like everyone had a good time. Sorry about the bar in front of Annemarie's face!
