Fourth of July

On the morning on the 4th we headed off to the Tulsa Zoo. What was a drizzle when we left the house was a true downpour by the time we got there. No matter, being recent Seattle transplants we decided to brave it (after buying zoo ponchos). Several soaking but fun hours later we had seen the whole zoo (including animals like the cheetahs who stay hidden on hot days) and there were no crowds.



We didn't go see any fireworks that night (since Gray's bedtime is 7:30 and it didn't seem worth it to break that schedule). So instead we taped the 4th from the Capitol which had performaces by Sesame Street puppets and a fireworks show. When we all got up the next morning we watched it together. It may not have been thrilling but it was a very nice 4th indeed.
