Great Grandma's Birthday and the "Zoop"

Last Sunday, the Willems family got together to celebrate Grandma's birthday. A trip to the park happened in the afternoon. 

I'd say there's a resemblance here- Brent, Eli and Grandpa Wichert.

One of Eli's favorites "Shelphy" or Shelby as everyone else knows her.

Then the next day we went on our first zoo trip of the year. Eli calls it the "zoop" and he loved it. We have yearly passes to the zoo that is just outside of Salina. He talked about the monkey and the giraffes the most once we left. A chimpanzee came up to the window when Eli was watching and knocked on it. Eli was really scared, but that's all he talked about afterwards.
