The next day (Thursday, Sept. 3rd), we went to the Point Defiance Zoo up in Tacoma. Liz, Rhett, Lauren, Anders, Amy, Sarah, Jacob, Grace, Davis, Gabbie, and I all went. Liz and Lauren have season passes, so we all got in free! It was a gorgeous day and the kids had fun being together and checking out the animals.
Posing (sort of) at the entrance.
Davis and Gabbie checking out the monkeys.
One of the monkeys came over and was swinging around everywhere and giving us a great show. Then, he swung right over to this tapir (I don't know -- looked like a big pig to me. =)), and hopped right on him. So funny. The kids loved it. The tapir didn't do much -- he just kind of rolled to the side more and then went back to sleep.
Everybody hitching a ride.
Gabbie, Anders, Jacob, and Grace at the Polar Bear exhibit.
Aaaaw. Anders giving Gabbie a hug. 
There was a great kids zone with toys, sprinklers, and a petting zoo. All the kids loved it. Davis picked a favorite goat and just fed that one. How responsible. =)
The last stop -- the carousel. Davis picked out a black horse and LOVED it. It was difficult getting him off and away from the carousel. He really wanted to go on it again. =( Gabbie loved it too. 
So happy!
Gotta cut those bangs.
