Kidspace and Santa Barbara Zoo

FAIR WARNING- This is a picture heavy post! Enjoy!
We had such a busy/relaxed and fun weekend! Saturday and Monday we totally chilled at home getting things done. Sunday we met Will and his family at Kidspace Kids Museum in Pasadena and today we met Grandma Joy and Grandpa Denny at the Santa Barbara Zoo for a day of frolicking fun. The weather was cloudy and overcast today, a welcome change from the past several weeks of heat and sun.

Sunday at Kidspace we had a blast in the indoor play area, the petting zoo, and the outdoor play area. The map is color coded by age group, and in 3 hours we had enough time for the main toddler activities plus a snack break. As you can see from the first picture, Will's mom Beth and I are a little bit similar looking. Enough so that Owen got confused twice and went right to her. At least we think he was confused. It was really cute!


































Owen met a sweet little girl Abby who kept trying to hug him. He was a little weirded out by the whole thing but we thought they made a cute couple. She apparently likes younger men because she's 18 months old. We ran into her a little later in the gorilla viewing room below.







We got to feed lettuce to the giraffes. O. tried but dropped his piece before the giraffe could grab it. He liked the experience we think.




Another highlight was the family play area with the giant "ant" hill for sliding. People were sliding down cardboard squares so we joined in the fun. As you can see, Owen and daddy especially liked the activity.
