Tyler, TX

I was going to take the boys to the zoo Monday afternoon, then I stepped outside and said "no way!" it was nearly 100F, so we just went back to the hotel and went swimming.  That night when Nathan got home from work we grabbed some Mexican nachos and then headed to a water park that we had been given free entrance tickets for from a kind woman we ran into in the Marriott parking lot.  It was a miniature water park that was all inside.  And we all had a blast with our fun Family Home Evening Activity.

Early the next morning we were out the door and headed to the zoo.  I haven't been to a zoo for a long time.  It was fun to see the animals...but many of the animals were sleeping - morning siesta, I guess.  And though the zoo opened at 9 it was still pretty hot and humid.  I am glad I rented a wagon or it definitely wouldn't have gone as well.   

You can see Kelton's poor little red face, and this was at 8:45. before the zoo even opened up.  We tried to stay in the shade as much as possible, the boys riding in the wagon.  We were all warm and sweaty - but so was everyone else there, so no biggie, right?!
