Rexburg Highlights: Third - The Zoo with cousins

   The Idaho Falls zoo is small enough to not exhaust you, but big enough to be interesting.  It also has the classic lion drinking fountain, that we have been taking pictures of our kids at for the last 15 years.   This time... it was Sylvia's turn to experience the fountain.

   We visited the zoo  with my brother's family. (Dave) We have been absent for a lot of their kids lives, so it was good to get to know them.
    Here is Darci, Colette, Felicia, and Joel, riding a tiger with Sylvia and Mattias.  My parents stand behind them.

The goats at the petting zoo were pretty spunky. 

Sylvia loved brushing their coats, over and over and over again.

Even Mattias thought it was pretty neat to get to pet the goats.

The cousins had a good time climbing around the play area together.

Here we have Joel, Darci, Colette and Sylvia trying to fit in a nest together.   They had a lot of fun.  Dave's kids are creative, adventurous, and love to laugh.  Sylvia had a really good time being around then.  Too bad we are 1500 miles apart.   They are really fun kids.

they have a similar lion drinking fountain at the Hogel Zoo in Salt Lake City. Thanks for the posts. Fun to watch how your kids have grown over the years.

Hey, thanks for getting the rest of your trip posted! I really enjoyed seeing all the fun things you did after you left Missoula. Now we'll wait to see what happens the rest of the year (not too much time left).
