To the Zoo

In Roanoke where my parents live there is a great little Zoo on top of the mountian. Mill Mountain Zoo. so when all of the packs converged on roanoke at once for the first time (all except my older brother, Chris, who was "at work today" as izzy said... in afghanistan) we headed up to the zoo to have a visit with the animals, the tiger, and the train.

Jacob and Max are good baby carriers.

Uncle Jacob

this is the red panda that max asked to bring home. he seriously asked me at least 5 - 10 times if we could get a red panda as a pet.

Max and Sabine check out Ruby
She's pretty darn happy in the back pack with lots of animals to look at.
some brave souls on the mill mountain zoo train.
