Oxbow Park

On this trip I wanted to take the kids (it still feels funny to say "the kids") to places that I remember from my childhood. Since we stopped at Silver Lake 10 minutes from my sister's house on the drive from KC we got one location done right off the bat.

The second destination was Oxbow Park. It is a little zoo that the County maintains with wolves, coyotes, bison, turkeys, etc. All native Minnesota animals and some animals that were injured and not able to live in the wild anymore. Steven really seemed to enjoy running to and fro but he especially liked watching the lawn mowers. Seems a little silly that we drove all that way for him to be excited about lawn mowers.

Lyla just hung out in the sling and took it all in. We did forget her hat so she got to "hold" her brothers baseball cap for awhile!
