Summer Adventure Series: The San Diego Zoo

The big kids are ALMOST done with this school year. I usually have mixed feelings towards summer break, since for stay at home moms, summer break is in fact not a break at all. Quite the opposite actually. Last summer I feel like Em and Hud missed out on a proper summer experience with me being super pregnant for the first half and adjusting to the whole having a newborn/three kids situation for the second half and so I promised myself I would make it up to them this summer. That being said we aren't planning any big trips, we are just going to fully enjoy our city and all it has to offer with plenty of adventures. Our summer adventures series started yesterday at the zoo. When you live in San Diego, it just makes sense to have zoo passes. We find ourselves there quite a bit throughout the year and it always makes for a quality family day. Yesterday's favorites included the reptile exhibit, aviary, flamingos and the petting zoo. They loooove being able to pet the animals...minus Hattie, she thought the goats were terrifying. 


















If you find yourself in San Diego, the zoo needs to be at the top of your to-do list!
