The Tesoro summer party was at the Hogle Zoo today. I was kind of nervous about going because last time Doran didn't have any fun. Well all that changed! They rented out the zoo for the evening so it was just Tesoro workers and their families so it seemed empty and it was awesome. Brock had fun cruisin around in the stroller! He was so good the whole time and I think he liked the train as much as Doran.

Probably the only animal Doran didn't say was "Eew caca!" was the giraffes. It was so funny, every single animal he would go EEWW! So even though he had way more fun this time it really had nothing to do with the animals!

Seth's brother in law works at Tesoro too so Doran's little cousins were there too. He had fun running around with Gavin! Can you see how empty the zoo was in this picture!

My uncle also works at Tesoro so my cousins were there too! This beauty is Madison and behind her are her handsome brothers Justin and Wesley.

And there is my aunt Lisa and uncle Winnie and Seth and Brock! Look how much fun Brock was having too!

So everyone who sees Doran and Gavin together always comment on how they look like twins. My uncle tonight even said, 'Wow, I have never seen identical cousins!' I think they look more alike then this picture even shows. It is pretty wierd!

We were supposed to have our own bird show but they cancelled it and got us an elephant show instead. It was cool but I think the bird show would have been better.

Here is our beautiful neice PresLeigh. We also had unlimited carousel rides which the little ones rode a few times! Doran and Gavin both wanted to do more!

Every time Doran came around he was smiling and laughing! He loved it!

And then there was the train, or the choo choo train as Doran kept saying! I think we rode it 5 times! This is what made the zoo the funnest for him. He really liked looking for water in the animals cages and he loved the park too, but nothing beat the train!

Then on the way out he had to play with the big water ball! It was fun dragging him away from it because he got wet real fast and got me wet too!

In the car on the way home he was singing a little song that went like this, 'Bye bye water. Choo Choo bye bye.' Maybe next year he will like some of the animals when we go to the zoo!

I had no idea they rented it out to just to the company! That would me so awesome. I think next time Seth should join in on the photography, I wanted to see pics of your hair! Next time? Oh and Im so glad Dorin had fun! How is Brock doing with his toe?
Looks like you had a great time. My kids love the slides and carousel at the zoo way more than the animals too!
Colie that was the most fun I've ever had in my life. J/K It was pretty fun we really like it when we get to spend time together.
So you need to hand your husband the camera every once in a while...ha ha...I am jealous that you have gone to the Zoo so much...it looks like a lot of fun for the kids!!!
