Un-birthday/Tea Party at the Zoo

This past Saturday, the zoo had a special unbirthday party.  Those who had memberships, were able to get tickets to attend a special tea party with Alice and the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland.  The kids loved it...especially Tali.  We had so much fun!  When we got there we had some time to kill before going to the Tea Party.  We decided to walk around and take advantage of some photo ops since it wasn't super packed at first.

Our two crazy gorillas.

 Haha.  I just have to say, my kids are so darn cute!

 

 Yep, my family loves seeing the primates!

 Hehehe!  My little man blends in! 

 Tali was being shown a replica of an orangutan skull.

 The kids were a little scared of the water that was shooting out of the trunk of this elephant.

 Of course we had to ride the carousel...again.  We would have ridden it more had it not been so close to the Tea Party time, but we had fun anyway.

 Oh how I love my kiddos!

 Trying to take a good photo was proving to be difficult for this prego lady.

 After the carousel, the kids wanted to color some sort of primate mask.

 Tali thought it was pretty awesome.

 Jairus was hamming it up too.

 Meeting Alice.

 Tali seemed to be attached to Alice's hip.  She loved Alice!

 Awww!  This really made my little girl's day!

 The Mad Hatter, Tali and Alice.  Jairus wasn't into taking photos with the characters.

 The Mad Hatter did a few magic tricks for Tali.  She thought it was pretty amazing!

 He had given her two little bunnies and they multiplied in her hand.  She was so surprised at that.

 Alice was so good to Tali.  It was so adorable!

 The Mad Hatter working his magic tricks.

 Jairus took advantage of the signs that read "Eat Me" and "Drink Me."  

They served mini cheesecakes and mini muffins along with some lemonade and strawberry lemonade.

 Game time!

 The kids playing "Alice Says"

 Tali chillin' with Alice.

 Jairus decided to make his own fun and try to drag daddy around with this mini hula hoop.

 I guess Jairus is giving daddy a "time-out."

 Tali couldn't have been more thrilled than to have been able to have such a wonderful time with Alice.  She had even made her a pinwheel and gave it to her.  It was so sweet!

 The Mad Hatter said that Tali gave him the best present....a hug.  That made her just beam!

 The zoo had a few tents that had different people from different companies.  This guy, "Molar Man" was from a pediatric dentist which is out by us.  So of course Tali had to get a picture.  They were really good with the kids.  They gave them stickers and kiddy tattoos which they thought was super cool.

 And we couldn't have left the zoo without playing with the giant legos.  Some kids had made this castle/fort type thing and took turns hiding in it and building it up.

 My little architects.

 Peek-a-boo!  I see Tali!...

 And Jairus!
