Lions, Tigers and Bears

Some friends from church called us up this weekend and asked if we would like to join them for a day at the zoo.  We’ve been a few times with just us, but it’s so much more fun when you have friends to share it with.  Dalton had a blast with their kids.  However, Blake and I are now convinced that Dalton has more energy than any three year old boy should have.  The other kids were six and four.  They all did their share of running all over the zoo, but when the day was over and the other two were ready to call it quits, Dalton was still as energetic as ever.  The scary thing is that I am quite sure Addie is going to take after her brother as soon as she is up and walking, which won’t be long.  This past week she started pulling up on furniture and seems to really enjoy her new view.

After the zoo, we headed across the way to ride the train.  The kids had a great time throwing popcorn to all the hungry birds.

Across from the train is the Japanese Tea Garden.  Who would have ever guessed something so beautiful would be hidden in downtown San Antonio.  This was the original location for one of the quarries in town.
