Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

We went to an amazing zoo called the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. I have been to hands on zoos before, but never one that offered so many opportunities to touch the animals. The weather was perfect for the animals to be out and about. Cousins were plentiful. Just a great day.

The first stop was to feed the giraffes.
So many giraffes, so few crackers.
They have long tongues.
Miss Maisy's favorite place to be, in daddy's arms.
A bird had just left Evan's shoulder.
Sadie was so excited to have one of the bird land on her feeding stick.
Maisy loved the fish.
An amazing view of Colorado Springs.
I love how the gorilla is totally ignoring everyone. Such a smart guy.
Jack's namesake.
Hiding from the camera.
Sadie is my biggest animal lover, so she was in heaven. Of the thirty-something thigs she wants to be when she grows up 75% deal with animals.
Two snuggle buddies.
All in all a great day at a fantastic zoo.
