A Monkey at the Zoo

This past Sunday we attended ZooBoo with my parents and my sister and her family. Bennett, dressed as a sock monkey, joined his cousins - the dalmation dog, triceretops and the pirate for a fun day! It was also a crowded day - with all the fun festivities and great weather, I think many other families had the same idea.

Our sock monkey and memaw and papaw closely watching the elephant as he is about to smash (and eat!) a pumpkin...

Here goes the smashing...

It was fun to meet up with my little cousins - Will (firefighter) and Madyson (High School Musical cheerleader). Every other child is looking at the camera...not bad.

Bennett's favorite part of the day was the aquatic exhibits. Here he is looking at the sharks and playing in the water. Twice when we tried to walk away from this, he began crying - we were finally able to distract him with the huge picture window of brightly colored fish.
