The week of Thanksgiving was wonderful. Mike was off of work the entire week so we got in lots of family time. On Monday we took the boys to the Fort Worth Zoo. This was our first time, as we usually go to the Dallas Zoo. It was *infinitely* better than Dallas Zoo! We were so happy to see that the animals were in a more natural environment, it felt cleaner and there were more animals. The boys had a blast. Their favorite animal, by far, were the monkeys. Won't you know I didn't even get any pictures of the monkeys! I guess we were too busy watching the boys be so excited.
Here are a few pictures of "our" wild animals (Brendan in red and Collin in grey):




And a few of the real wild animals:




It was an exhausting day, as you can see:

We also visited the trains at Northpark that week, which was also a huge hit. We had a great Thanksgiving with both of our families. Overall it was one of the best weeks of the year so far. We have a lot to be thankful for!

Yei!!! So nice to "hear" from you guys!! It sounds like you had a perfect Thanksgiving week!! I have to agree, the Ft. Worth Zoo is MUCH better than the Dallas zoo, for all the reasons you mentioned. In case you ever need to know, the San Francisco and Oakland zoo's are similar with the Oakland zoo being the more natural, cleaner, animal "friendly" one. It looks like the boys had a really great time. Wish we could have joined you.
So adorable!
