OMSI, Burnside Family Party & Zoo

After a fair number of trips to the Portland Children's Museum in November and December, TJ and Archer took Ra to OMSI for a bit of variety.

 






Future and family hosted a party for the Burnside crew, including tours of the chicken coop and rides on the goat wagon!
 
 

Bullied by a billygoat!
 




 
 
 





On a brisk January morning, Raminta and the boys picked up a family membership at the Portland Zoo.


This ape came over and sat by TJ, clearly sharing a special moment.

 
 


Sea lions, polar bears, elephants, lions, tigers and zebras! (Oh, my!)
