Today Lance started out the day by asking "Mom, can we go to the zoo today?" I started to say "no" but then realized I had no reason to say no. I got some chores done while the kids did some painting then we made our way into Anchorage. 
This time I brought along the monkey leash for Lexie. When it comes to animals this girl is out of control! I was definitely glad I brought it too.
The Alaska zoo is perfect for little kids. It isn't super big, but has lots of cold weather animals that most other zoos don't have. The paths are covered in wood chips and they have lots of board walks. Another thing I love about the zoo is that the animals have large pens. 
Lance was adorable! At the entrance they gave us a map and he decided he was going to navigate the zoo for us. He did a pretty good job too. 
Lexie's favorite part was the petting zoo. She loved the goats and the rabbit. When some other kids came in and wanted to pet the goat she yelled "no, that's my goat!"
The best part of the day was while we were eating our snack I got a phone call. Someone had found Happy!!! I was so excited I was crying tears of joy. We left rite away and drove to pick her up. Happy had missed us too! She had been very well taken care of though. 
Thank you, God for bringing our doggie back home to us! We have missed her so much!!
