We like to spend a lot of time outdoors over the summer. Winter is for curling up on the couch with a glass of red, an open fire and a movie. Summer is a time to get outside and enjoy yourself.
We go to the zoo often as we have a membership there, but today we actually got to see a few really cool things that we'd never seen before
like a snake shedding it's skin – how I wish I had a video camera with me.
The bubs had a great time in the Petting Zoo and actually went up to a couple of goats on their own this time to pat them.
Then the boys went for a ride on the Skyfari while I hiked with the stroller all the way to the Polar Bear exhibit to meet up with them … I swear I walked 400 miles uphill and it must have been 120 degrees … okay that may be a slight exaggeration, but it sure felt like it at the time, which was made even better by them calling me every 2 minutes asking if I was nearly there yet. Ah, no, I'm not.
The highlight of the boys day was seeing a rat being ripped to shreds … delightful, I know, but every boys dream. They thought it was disgusting but could I get them to leave. Nope. I took the babies for a walk, sat in the shade, came back and they were still mesmerized. BOYS!
Wish my kids would keep me up all night (oh wait they do) and feed me ice cream in bed! Your week has exhausted me just sitting here! Looks like fun!
I love the picture of the boys passed out…..and the video, too. Your kids are so cute. I’m sorry to hear about the Citizenship crap, though!
Gosh Tonya, you pack a lot into 3 days!
HOLLO WTH with that lawer office i wear…….Great pictures and as always a lot of FUN….. Marisol sure can catch
Totally loved the video of you and Marisol playing catch! She’s really good! Where did you find those monkey backpacks? They’re too cute. Can’t imagine what my kids would do in the time it would take us to go to the dentist. I’d probably let my teeth rot first before taking them lol
Looks like a fabulous week so far! So cute about the boys passing out in the chairs! Trust me, I know about how teenagers stay up all night! Luckily I have a basement and my bedroom is upstairs so I normally can’t hear much and I have learned to block out everything else!
Wow a busy few days you’ve had! Sorry you had suck sucky service with getting your citizenship. I hate when other people waste my time like it has no value. I love all of your pictures. Especially the big boys in the tiny pools. I soooo would have done the same..I’m pretty sure I did in fact. Thank god Mom didn’t take pictures much!
