Spontaneous Fun Day!

Last Thursday my friend, Carrie, and I decided last minute to take the kids to the Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia, SC.  Columbia is about 1 1/2 hours from here so we ended up getting there by 11am that morning.  The morning started out extremely crowded and honestly we weren't so sure we had made the right decision to come that day because there were about 50 school buses (OK, maybe not that many) alongside of us.  But, about an hour into our morning there things started turning around.  All of our kids were having so much fun and loved seeing the animals and doing all the fun things the zoo had to offer.  Brooke rode a pony, Luke and Brooke rode the train, did some rope climbing, rode the merry-go-round and got to see some really cool penguins.  We ended up staying about 5 hours and had an absolute blast!! Brooke has been asking to go back everyday!
