Brookfield Zoo and Hesston Steam Museum

Ok, I'm really far behind on updates. I need to blog about the New Kids on the Block concert, but I'll wait until I'm a bit more awake :)

Last weekend, we went to Brookfield Zoo with Jon's mom and niece.


The kids rode a lion.


Played with dinosaurs.


Rode a zebra and a warthog.


Visited butterflies


and giraffes


and Connor got to be a vet! 

On Sunday, we drove out to LaPorte, IN and visited the Hesston Steam Museum for their family day.
