Day Nine...Burnsville, MN...Como Zoo

Today was another laid back day. We all slept in and spent plenty of time in our jammies. Once we all got around and Angie got home from work, we headed over to the Como Zoo. It is a great little zoo with quite a few animals.
They also have a little carnival area. Samuel was thrilled about the rides and being the suckers we are he got to ride a few. He had to ride all these on his own and was so excited. They were all a bit more intense then the rides at the Mall of America and he loved it.

Race cars

The initial drop scared Samuel a bit but once that was over he loved it.
Lots and lots of laughing!

Samuel loved driving the fire truck. They could also ride on the back and squirt water but he wanted to drive both times he rode it.

This was the most exciting ride. I was hesitant to let him go thinking he would freak out but he loved it. I can't wait to take him to Cedar Point next summer!

Liam was no thrilled to have to sit and watch all the action. I think he would have been on the rides if we would have let him.

When we were finished we headed back to the house to pick up Daddy and Uncle Caleb for dinner. We all enjoyed a great dinner at Olive Garden. After getting the boys in bed we all were able to enjoy the movie Vantage Point before finishing our evening with the Olympics.

Tomorrow will be our last day here. We head out Friday morning for a night in Iowa before visiting our friends, the Dinkins, in St. Louis.
