At the Zoo/ GO IU

Sir Alex came for a visit this weekend. We met him and his family at the zoo for a fun-filled 100 degree day! :)In what I believe the be his favorite part of the day, Alex visited the splash park. Uncle Jackson is always ready to play so he volunteered to run around in the water with the little guy.
"HOORAY! A bit of cool water!"
A little more playing before we moved on.
I love the penguins and so did Alex!
We took the train around the zoo. (Note: If you're going to the Indianapolis Zoo skip the train. It was not worth the time!) I was able to get a good photo of my Dad, Diana, Nick, Alex and Kylie, though.
We spotted a giraffe and its baby.
I love the monkeys!
That evening, after a cook out at our new place, Jackson and I headed downtown to catch the Indiana University vs. Ball State University with Shaya and Bates at the home of the Colts- Lucas Oil Stadium. We intended to just buy tickets there, but so did about 5,000 other people. I'm not kidding. It was PACKED. We eventually gave up on finding tickets and caught the game from the "Hoosier Country" bar in downtown Indianapolis, Kilroy's. We had a great time hanging out with Shaya and Bates. We love those two. And loved having little Alex up to visit! :)

Looks like the zoo was fun even if it was 100 degrees. Jackson is a natural with kids.
