Bear encounter at the zoo!!

Today Heidi and I took Thaddeaus and Blakely to the Woodland Park Zoo. We had such a fun time! My friend Jessica and her daughter, Riplee (who I watch a couple days a week now) met us there as well.
Just before Jessica called us to let us know she was there so that we could meet up, we had the most amazing encounter with a bear! We were in the area that you can view the bears and otters from half under the water and half above, where the kids can run around and play while the animals swim around and go about their day. There was no one else around, so the bear came to the window with a big stick and started to give us a little show. He blew bubbles and put his paws to the window...it was incredible!










The boys had so much fun together too. I wanted to share this picture of them on the stroller, it is just so sweet. When they are much older, I will show it to them and I think they will get a laugh out of it.
