A Day at the Zoo

Well below is a long list of pictures of our day at the Niabi Zoo. We had loads of fun and the kids loved all the animals. Hunter fed the ducks in the water and the goats at the petting zoo. Dirk and Aunt Erin had to take him into the reptile area because mommy is too scared to go in. By the end of the day both kids were fast asleep in the car before we hit the interstate.

Lexi and Hunter were playing on the little car machine. Lexi thought she was big stuff and of course big brother Hunter had to help show her how to drive it.

Daddy giving Lexi kisses on the cheek. Check out those blue eyes, and 2 teeth.

Lexi and Emma on the Rhino. Too cute little girls!

Hunter and Lexi look so much alike in this picture. All Swanson!!

Our family picture, not too flattering of me though.

Aunt Erin was tired so she took over in Hunters wagon for a little while.

Aunt Erin and Hunter are on their way to the Zoo. They were soo excited.

Update on the house

We finally have walls for the basement. I wasn't as brave as Dirk and Carl. They walked around on the walls. It was too high for me.

Dirk and Brian had to haul wheelbarrows full of gravel to put around the foundation. Look at all that mud! What a mess.

We have a hole dug! Finally some work is getting done.

Hunter at the park

Aren't we cute!

I helped Hunter across the monkey bars. He laughed the whole way. He kept just hanging there wanting me to hold him in the air. What a turkey.

Hunter loved playing in the tunnels. He kept wanting me to chase him through them. As you all know I am not a small person but I did it. Of course he laughed that I could never catch him.
