Thanksgiving in St. Louis

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! We were able to travel to St. Louis to be with Mike’s family for the holiday. The day after we got there, the temperature was 70 degrees and absolutely beautiful. So we decided to take full advantage of it and we took a trip to the zoo with Grandma.

All the animals were out and active and Sarai really enjoyed experiencing all the animals in person. She loves the animals in her books and can make a lot of the animal sounds. But seeing them in real life was a whole new world for her.

We got to see the mommy elephant and her baby, camels, penguins, monkeys (Sarai’s favorite), lots of fish and zebras just to name a few.

Sarai thought the monkeys were really cool until they got right up to the window near her. She didn’t quite understand there was glass between her and them.

We were so excited to have a nice day while we were in St. Louis and have a chance to go to the zoo there. It really is fabulous and if you are ever in the area, you should definitely go. Plus, it is free!
