We woke up on New Years Day and asked the kids what they wanted to do. Emily decided that she HAD to go to the zoo. We have a very small zoo, animal sanctuary really, here in Prescott. It's small, cheap and perfect for kids under 5. I thought about driving to this great zoo that is about 45 minutes away until I looked up prices. $36 for adults and $20 for children. Seriously, are you kidding me? $112 for a family of 4 to get in. I wondered if I should e-mail them and let them know they aren't Sea World. It's a pretty cool zoo though, so I will wait until we get a buy one, get one free admission and then we can go.
We went to our little zoo for $21. It was perfect.
Watching the black bear nibble on a bone.
Being silly.
More silliness.
They also have a playground and free roaming peacocks. Apparently, this peacock enjoys the slide as much as the next kid.
Daddy had to go up and scare the peacock away.
I love watching the kids and taking pictures when they don't know they are being watched.
We had a great time and it was a nice way to start the new year.

This is a great way to start the new year!
We have a small zoo similar to this in Decatur, which is an hour west of us. It was a nice place to bring Sarah when she was little. Seeing the photos of your children having fun, remind me of those times.
Now for us, it's Pre-Algebra projects compliments of a daughter who loves to procrastinate. Lucky for us, Jim loves Math - I'm not a numbers girl, so he gets to help on all of these projects. :-)
I'm glad your New Year is off to a fun start.
