Darren and I had both Monday and Tuesday off in celebration of Darren's 33rd Birthday. We had a fun time going to the zoo and taking a drive through the mountains to see the changing leaves. It was a fun family trip and good just to spend time together.
Judson loves the animals at the zoo. It was great to be able to see the babies at the zoo. We saw the baby elephant, giraffe, monkey and snow leopard. Judson gets more and more excited to see the animals and make their sounds. It was a milestone too because this is the first time Judson has even gone near the animal statues. In the past he's always been too afraid to get too close to animal or statue. Now he's starting to learn and realize the difference. Such a big boy.
The baby Giraffe. So cute!!
We decided to ride the train. Judson loved it and loved making the "choo choo" noise. 
Judson loves the Rhinoceros. He was very excited to see this statue.
Darren and Judson in the gopher holes. Judson was scared to death of the prairie dogs being so close. 
They have new measure up signs at the zoo. Judson is nearly an adult female orangutan.
After the zoo we drove up Parley's and then down Provo canyon to look at the changing leaves. It was such a nice drive and the colors were beautiful. We took the walk from Nun's park to Bridal Veil Falls. The water was cold, but Judson liked playing in it for a minute. He loves throwing rocks into water right now. It's fun to watch them splash. I don't think you really ever grow out of that like. It's still fun for me.

What a fun day Crystal! Judson looks so big sitting by himself on the bench on the train. I'm glad you took a picture of the baby giraffe. I keep hearing about the babies but we probably won't get there to see them. You've had fun with your zoo pass.
I love the picture of Judson throwing himself on the rhino. I can't even tell you the last time I have been to the zoo, it has been so long.
I love going to see the colors change in the mountains. They are about to turn here, I am very excited.
He looks a little terrified sitting on that train. Glad you took time to hang out for Darren's birthday! Happy Birthday to Darren.
Fun stuff! I loooove kids at the age of 2...when they start talking and telling you things. You finally get to hear what's in that little head of theirs.
Happy Birthday Darren!
