_________ , and Tigers, and Bears! Oh my!

For Achievement Day Activity this month we decided to take the girls to the zoo. And since school is out, my kids and mom came along with us. 9 girls, my two boys, and 5 adults all trying to stay together at the Alaska Zoo without getting lost or eaten by polar bears. What an adventure! Morgan and her friend Alina sharing a snack.

My cute little achievement day girls. Thanks for spending time at the zoo with us girls! It was a blast!

It is not easy to get this kid to volunteer for pictures, but when he does...man, watch out!

My little monkey at the zoo.

This kid cracks me up! She is such a cutie, and yet so determined no to get in front of the camera. Melissa, I hope your ok with me posting this. You just have such an awesome kid in Cora, and I will miss her when she grows up and leaves our Achievement Day Girls to go into Young Womens.

Or poor little molting camel. Talk about a bad hair day, ladies.

The Zoo Keeper giving Chandler a Porcupine Quill for his collections.

This porcupine was hilarious. When the zoo keeper went in his cage to collect some needles for Chandler, she went walking right up to him and stood on her hind legs, then started begging for some treats. Mom asked if it was ok to give her some of her sandwich, and he let us. Mmmmm, peanut, peanut butter. And Jelly!

Sometimes, I wish I knew what this kid was thinking...
