Como Zoo Trip

Last week, Katie, Joseph and i went to the Como Zoo in St. Paul, MN. it was Joseph’s first trip to the zoo. at first, i wasn’t sure how much he would get out of it – but after posting my intentions on the facebook, and getting the response that i got from a myriad of old friends… i didn’t think twice. We then debated whether or not to go to the Como Zoo in St. Paul or the Minnesota Zoo in Apple Valley – well, after looking at the price difference (Como = free, MN = $32 + $5 for parking), location (Como is closer) and time (Katie had to work that evening and of course we got a later start than we had planned, so we were short on time), we decided on the Como Zoo. i got one comment on facebook that a friend finds the Como Zoo “depressing” – but it was an absolutely beautiful day and a joy taking the day off of work and spending it with the family.

updated photos

I’ve uploaded more photos into the Joseph photo gallery mostly older ones, but a couple new ones as well. We took some photos of ‘the belly’ along the way… and the first photo we took, January 16th, 2008… let’s just say Katie thought she had a belly then. HA! go check em out or cheat and go directly to my flickr gallery (the photos are the same).

thank you

to all of the awesome family and friends… i would like to extend a great big THANK YOU from my family.

It has been amazing to see the response of family and friends. Katie, Joseph and i are truely blessed.
