Nebraska!

After leaving Des Moines, we drove the second leg of our journey to Lincoln where my aunt, cousins and grandmother live. We had a wonderful time playing with cousins, going to the zoo, the splash park, and visiting Great-Grandma's new apartment. We had such a wonderful time with our loved ones that I can't wait to go back...even if it means another road trip!


Ice cream with Great Grandma.
On our first day there, we visited the Lincoln Children's Zoo, and had a fantastic time!


On the train!
We got to take pony rides at the zoo. When asked if that sounded fun, Shirley said, "YEAH! I WANNA RIDE THE PURPLE ONE!!!"
She was very, very serious during the entire ride.Checking out the jungle gym.
Flamingos with Grandma.
Butterfly Girl.
In the butterfly sanctuary.



Trying to hold butterflies.

Trying.
And trying.
Stroller man communes with goats.






The zoo is exhausting.


On the second day, we visited the splash park and had a blast. Shirley had so much fun, I couldn't even get a picture of her!


Splash park!


Busy boy.
