Colin's Zoo Birthday

Colin's birthday party was at the zoo. We figured it would be a long drive for everyone to get there, but hoped it would be worth it. We thought it was!

It started out with a scavenger hunt in the Insectarium while everyone arrived. Here are Kevin, Kyle and Chase searching for bugs.

Colin was so cool to get out of the stroller for about 20 minutes.

After we all arrived, we walked to the Nutrition Center where the games were set up.

Rachel and Parker are playing.

Colin is making a home for the daddy and baby giraffes.

After the games they brought out a chincilla, small dragon, frog, dove, and snake for the kids to touch. Here is Colin touching the snake.

Here is a picture with all the kids. Starting at the bottom left they are: Ryan, Chase, Parker, Rachel, Ella, Kyle, Kevin, Emily and Colin. (Baby Graham not pictured.)

Here is Colin's face when they lit the candles on his cake. He was excited. His new favorite song is Happy Birthday. I think he believes it to be a special song for him!

After the party all the kids made picture frames with their names and animal stickers. Kevin was very proud that he put all his letters on in order! He even named them as he pointed to them, it is just that he was reading from right to left.

I didn't want to make this post too long, so I cut a lot of pictures. However, K2 had the great idea of taking pictures of all the kids as they ate, so I may have to post those, as long as parents don't mind!
