Emma goes to the St. Louis Zoo!

My mom came to visit for a weekend in early June and we went to the Zoo for Emma to see the different animals we read about in her books. We had great weather and we actually got to see animals playing in their habitats - much more than usual! I don't think I have ever seen the elephants playing in the water like in the below photos! Emma loved it! Thank you to all the individual and company sponsors for keeping our Zoo free to the public.
