While we were in Portland area we decided to take a couple extra days to spend some time exploring as a family. We took a day to go to the zoo and it just happened to be the day of their Easter Eggstravaganza so it was insane, but we still managed to have some fun!
 |
| Because it was so busy we had to park in shuttle parking lot which is a ways away. Because it is so far they have school busses that take you to the zoo. This is Reagan on the bus! |
 |
| Daddy, Leauna, and Lydia! This was the first time for any of my kids to ride on a bus, so they LOVED it! |
 |
| Ryland, Mommy, and Reagan! |
 |
| We finally made it to the zoo and the first thing we saw was the black bear! |
 |
| Reagan checking out the bears with daddy! He had so much fun and was so excited to see what was coming next! This was the first time the boys have walked at the zoo, and they were champs, and had so much fun with it! |

| Leauna, Reagan, Lydia, and Ryland! |

 |
| Reagan insisted on wearing my glasses because the sun was so bright! |
The zoo was so busy and we didn't get to stay as long as we would have liked, but we still had such a wonderful afternoon together! I love getting away with my family!
 |
| Since it was such a nice day after the zoo craziness we decided to get some ice cream! We splurged on some cold stone! The kids love being able to pick out what kind of ice cream they got and what they put in it! It was a yummy treat to end the great day! |
