Ryan and Andrew checking out the turkeys.

Sean found a better way to get a look at the turkeys.

The white NOT albino alligator. This guy has no pigment in his skin, but does have pigment in his eyes.

Andy and the dog.

Alex's picture of the penguins. As we were walking down to them, a little boy said, "Mommy, everybody likes penguins." My kids have said the same thing many times.

Andrew measuring up to the gorilla.

Discovery Gardens

Sean and Ryan hanging out at the gardens. It was impossible to get anymore pictures. One mother watching four boys, there was just no way to take any more shots.

Ryan took carrying for the baby very seriously. First he put the baby in a crib all alone.

Then he put him in the crib with this other baby. Maybe that felt more right to Ry Guy.

King Mark found his throne.

Andrew created his crest.

Sean wanted to color his letters.

Very presidential.
