Lions and Tigers and Bears . . . Oh My!

For Nevada Day us, my parents, Kade, Leah and Evan and Lynne and Derild, Reed and Carissa all went over the Sacramento for the day. We left Fallon at 8:00am and we were back in Reno by 6:30pm. We did a little shopping there before we headed back to Fallon, so we were home and in bed by about 9:30pm. We all met at Boom Town and then traveled on from there together. Lynne and Derild were so nice and let Evan and Kylan ride in their car with them and Reed and Carissa. I think the boys kept them pretty entertained as well as themselves! Our car was very quiet with only Mya and Emmit. They both slept pretty much the whole way to sacramento and the whole way back to Reno. Poor Emmit was pretty sick the whole time, but the trip allowed him plenty of sleep and relaxation, so he did really well!



Our first stop was Leatherby's. If you have never been here you must go next time you are in Sacramento! They have the best crab sandwiches and the best homemade ice-cream! We did not plan for the boys to match it just happened! Aren't they all so cute!



After they ate their lunch they each got ice-cream. Mya has Strawberry because it is pink.




Evan had chocolate.




And Ky had vanilla.



Emmit loved walking around and he is into climbling on things, so he kept trying to climb back into his seat.



Leatherby's is seriously one of my absolute favorite places to eat. Plus it reminds me of when I was little and we would eat there. It's crazy to think that I am now taking my own kids there!
Our next stop was the zoo.















The giraffs are Kylan and Grandma's favorite to see. Mya's favorite was the chimps who were swinging around and playing with the water from the hose that they were using to clean their cage while we were there.




Emmit was pretty much not impressed with any of the animals, well except the ottors because they would come right up to the glass so he could see them. He didn't complain though. He just drank his bottle and ate some snacks and enjoyed riding in his stroller!




Here's Mya and Kylan looking at either the lions or the tiger. They loved all the animals and since we went on a day that wasn't a holiday in California the zoo was pretty empty so it was nice for the kids and it didn't take long at all the get through it!



It was such a nice day and a nice trip! Thank you mom and dad for planning it for us! We loved it! And best of all everyone was so tired when we got home that everyone (including Emmit ) slept all night long!

You look so good Kassi! I was just skimming through your picture and saw the kangaroo pictures and thought "Wow, they have those at the Sacramento Zoo too." Then I went back and read that you were at the Sacramento Zoo.
