Sacramento Zoo & Fairytale Land

While in Sacramento I knew we had to go to the zoo, Sadi has never been to a real zoo and I knew she would love it. So we spent a day at the zoo and Fairytale land. Doesn't she make a cute zoo keeper?All the kids loved watching the animals. Chase was mesmerized by all the animals, he was really excited to see the Lion.

He also had to see how he measured up the baby giraffe.

We all loved watching the chimpanzees...they were very entertaining and kept us laughing till we cried (literally).

They were so cute Kelsey had to steal a kiss from the Gorilla.

After the zoo we headed across the street to Fairytale land. It is a park that has all kinds of slides and play areas and every one of them is themed around a story. The kids loved being able to run around and explore. Here are my cuties cuddling up to Mother Goose.

Chase loved this huge shoe slide (from the little old lady who lived in this shoe).


Sadi becoming toe jam in between Jack's toes (from Jack and his bean stock). Kelsey climbed on top of this little tortoise (from the tortoise and the hare). I have a picture somewhere of her on this same tortoise from when she was about 6 years old. I will have to look for it. They all wished they were going to the ball here in Cinderella's pumpkin carriage.



Not sure which royalty this throne belonged to but they all thought it could be there's.

It was a fun but very exhausting day!
