For Lonna's 3rd birthday party she wanted to spend the day at the Zoo.  We had 18 people show up to the zoo to celebrate her birthday with us. My mom and dad, my grandpa and Eileen, my uncle Terry and Aunt Laura and my cousins, and our really good friends the Thomas family that babysit the kids on a regular basis. It was so fun to have every one there together at the same time. We started out the day by having a big picnic lunch, cup cakes and presents and then we were off to see all of the fun animals. We spent several hours going from exhibit to exhibit and enjoying the different things that we were finding. The Biggest hits of the day were definitely the polar bear and the tiger. The other big entertainment of the day was riding the carousel several times while we were there. It ended up being the funnest party we have had for her yet.
