Reed turned 6 years old on the 24th of August and for his birthday he wanted to go to the Memphis Zoo. He LOVES animals, especially big cats and pandas. Memphis Zoo has lots of both plus so many other cool animals that we had never seen. It would be hard to say what our favorites were. Polar Bear ranked pretty high. Cheetah, lions, tiger, grizzlies, the list really goes on and on. This zoo is the best we've ever been to. We arrived at 9am when they opened and shut them down at 5pm. Exhausted would be an understatement but we had the best time. Kimberly enjoyed herself too. She was really checking out some of the animals. Cate and Reed were so excited that as soon as they would see one animal they would want to run to the next to see what was there. Just as much fun as the animals were the treats...Icees, nachos, lollipops...
Enjoy the pics....

Oh my indeed!!! How fantastic!!! I had forgotten how fun the zoo can be!!! That polar bear made me think of the show Lost...random thought.
These pics are incredible! It looks like a wonderful zoo and trip. The kids' look so happy. My favorite of them is the one in the front of the zoo, knelt down by Kimberly in the stroller. My favorite of the animals is the Orangatang (sp?). Such a happy birthday gift. Reed was eager to tell me about it on Sunday morning...I know he couldn't get it all in the conversation! Thanks for sharing. We may have to go check it out soon. Good road trip!
