We enjoyed a long weekend for the 4th, so on Friday the 3rd we decided to take Abby and my sister Maryann to Point Defiance Zoo down in Tacoma. We had lots of fun!
Abby's favorite part was the Aquarium.

But she also enjoyed chimpanzees.

Oh, I almost forgot the birds. I can't remember the correct term for what they are,

but Abby tried to get them to eat seeds off her stick. Unfortunatly, it was nap time and the birds were in there home.

Tired after a long day!

I didn't get any pictures of the 4th festivities, but we had a great day. Our neighborhood does a big block party where everyone BBQ's and brings a potluck dish. Being new to the area it was a really fun oppotunity to meet our neighbors.
