visit with aunt megan

last week we were lucky enough to have a visit from "aunt megan." jack was very glad to see her, having heard that she was an animal scientist like diego.

she came bearing gifts -- a reptiles & amphibians set and some jungle animals and then she acquiesced to play with them and rescue them with jack's fire truck.

that's all it took. they were bff's.

on one of her last days on the right coast (and we do mean right) ... we headed to the national zoo to check out the animals and enjoy some (relatively) warmer weather:




the trip with aunt megan was much more informative and ... what's the word ... correct than the normal zoo excursion. and jack seemed to enjoy it (or maybe that's just the hot dog and ketchup talking) :

nature walks, rescues, zoo trips, rescues ... aunt megan's trip was the epitome of eventful ... full of events!
