Labor Day in Omaha!

Over the Labor Day weekend we were able to take a quick weekend getaway to Omaha. It is only a 3 hour drive. We spent some time visiting the Winter Quarter's visitors center and temple, and also went to the Omaha zoo. We had such a great time. It was a nice last minute family trip before the new addition arrives.

Here we are at the temple. This is "our" temple while living here in Kansas City.

Jude loved playing on the temple grounds, we love this picture as he is peeking out from behind a corner!

Jude loved the Zoo. He is obsessed with animals, so it was so fun to see him looking at all the animals and making their sounds.

Here is daddy and Jude. They had this huge indoor rain forest. Not only with plants but with some crazy animals. Here they are crossing a bridge!

Jude's favorite was the aquarium. It was a huge tunnel, with sharks, huge fish, turtles, stingrays etc. He loved staring at the animals. He keep saying more, more, more. He also loved to chase the penguins at their exhibit.

Of course, the monkeys/gorillas are always entertaining to see.

It was quite a jump for me to get up on the gorilla and pose with Jude.

There was this bird exhibit that you could feed the birds. Jude was a little hesitant, but daddy helped and Jude loved to have the bird so close as he nibbled on his stick.

We had such a great weekend at the Zoo. Now it is time for this baby to come!! A few more weeks!
