Zoo Boy



For those of you that have never been to the Natural Bridge Zoo, you really should go. I am from Columbus Ohio which has the #2 zoo in the country. In my opinion this one is a close third. The best part about this zoo is you get to feed the animals and half of them run free around you! Donkeys, Llamas and Camels run free throughout the zoo. This can be a good thing or a bad thing. They are friendly but as you can see in one of the shots, if they see you have feed they chase you until its gone. I was a little intimated by them but Joel and Jett loved it. The only picture I didnt post here is where we held the baby white tiger!!!! They took a 8 X 10 of us holding him but I have yet to scan it. What a fun Sunday this was! We will definitely be back! 




Dont you just love this one! Nothing like Daddy and Son!

This Llama freaked me out. He wouldnt leave us alone. We had to run for him to finally stop following us. LOL. Apparently he was hungry! 

Okay the Giraffes tongue is really sticky and slimy.  It was VERY strange! 

This is a 25 year old Female that weighs 8,000lbs!!!!!


This guy followed us around too. I was scared he would bite Jetts finger off. 

The Monkey saw Jett in the window and ran over and handed him a carrot. It was SO cute!

GREAT photos! Looks like an awesome family day. LOVE the pics of you guys on the elephant.

Sidenote: How in the world does Jett keep those shades on his face? Max tears his sunglasses off the minute I put them on his head! Any tips?

This is probably awful but I just keep telling him no and put his hand down when he tries to take them off. I do the same thing with a hat. Now he keeps both on all the time. :-)
