Jackson's first trip to the zoo!

This weekend we took Jackson to the Franklin Park Zoo in Boston.  It was his first zoo trip.  He loved watching the ducks splash in the water and got a big kick out of the gorillas. 

We also stopped by Harvard University and walked along the Charles River to watch the boat and crew races.  It was a great day.  






Jackson wasn't too fond of the donkeys!




Daddy and Jackson playing on the tractor.  It would make Papa proud!

Can you spot the baby goat?

Sitting under the Elm tree in Cambridge Common where Washington first took control of the Army.  We watched a Harvard intermural kickball tournament that was underway.  Who knew, Harvard had a kickball team?  Looked like fun.  



Jackson wouldn't sleep the whole trip so he was pretty tuckered out in the end
