Fall field trips

We've had the flexibility to take numerous fun and educational outings this fall, including visiting a zoo, the Seattle Aquarium, the Arboretum, Fort Warden, taking a library tour, and getting a private tour of Uncle Mike's firestation (for which I'm still kicking myself over not bringing my camera).

Actually, I am seriously guilty of not taking my camera on many occasions this fall. Fortunately, my mother and mother-in-law are excellent photographers and are much more religious about photo-taking than me (something about keeping track of 3 children lowers the priority of having a camera). Also fortunate for us, grandparents are often a part of our field trip outings. What a lucky bunch of field trippers we are!

Here are the girls riding camels and feeding the Budgies (these darling birds that fly right up to you to eat the seeds you're holding) at Point Defiance Zoo:
