We're ready to go the the new Splash Pad at the zoo today. We met Julia Townsend and Jaala Nelson and all of their kiddos. It's a concrete pad with all these cool sprinkler things that kids can run through. I wasn't sure if Rio would like it or not, but he loved it (even though the water was freezing). He crawled around, ate leaves (or tried to), examined the cool sprinklers, and watched the other kids. I should have taken some pictures, but didn't think the camera would hold up under the sprinklers. Guess I'll have to take a photographer along with me next time.
