Zoo...Well, sort of.

We went to this cool animal rescue type zoo just outside of Spokane last week.  It's called CatTales.  All the animals are of the cat family and you get pretty close to them.  We had been talking about going all week and practiced our lion growls and tiger roars.  We wanted Lilly to be prepared and excited.  Well, she was more than excited!  She talked about going the whole week and finally when we got there, she ran up to the first tiger cage and the two tigers were playing and one of them growled at the other pretty loudly.  It was amazing!  And Lilly stood there like her mind was blown!  She was really overwhelmed and we ended up being one of those people with a screaming child that wouldn't leave because we wanted to get our moneys worth.  haha!

Lilly pretty much calmed down once we got back to the car and then started talking about the animals again and wanted to see them.  Maybe in the Fall we'll try it again little one.  :)

 
She's extremely overwhelmed here.  It was almost too much to handle seeing all these lions and tigers we had been talking about all week.





After the zoo, we went for a drive (and by drive, I mean we got sort of lost for awhile and just drove until the gravel road turned to pavement again) around Mount Spokane and then to this little diner that's in a train car for dinner.  It was so cool inside and the food was yummy!  We haven't really gotten out much in the past 11 months since we've been here, but we figured that since Brandon starts his job, we should probably get out and have a fun day.  These were both fun places we will definitely return to again!
