San Diego Zoo

I took my "real" camera to the San Diego Zoo.  It was amazing.  You could actually see animals- unlike I feel like our zoo is.  The Giraffe's were indeed my favorite.  We had to take some pictures of the Koala Bears for Aunt Linda cause they are her favorite.  The zoo was huge and we ended up walking over 5 miles while we were there.  It was a great time and I highly recommend the San Diego Zoo!

Christylee's Gender Reveal

I am so late in posting these pictures- I forgot they were on my camera!  Luke and I wouldn't have missed Christylee and Steve's gender reveal party.  When I got to Jerry and Nancy's house- Jacob and Lily were making a cake.  I helped them finish baking it and making the icing.  It was supposed to be a blue and pink cake- but ended up being orange and green since they started with a yellow cake mix.  It was still however, very tasty!  We had pizza and salad and then all went outside to do silly string and party poppers.  The look on Mrs. Nancy's face was worth it all- It's a GIRL!!!  I was so thinking it was a boy.  Congrats to Steve, Lily, and Christylee.  Gotta get busy knitting something pink! 

Zoo Field Trip

                                    Caden and Kingston got their picture made with Debbie the zookeeper!

Yesterday, was the field trip day at the Little Rock Zoo.  Ms. Atwood's class along with all the other Kindegarten classes went to the zoo for the day.  We were set with our own scavenger hunt list!  We teamed up with Caden and his parents and had a really fun time.  We found animals with a big nose, stripes, lived in water, large animals, and anything else on our sheet.  We ate lunch outside the zoo and then went back in for more fun.  Kingston bought 4 rocks and of course a Popsicle to end the day.  It was fun making memories at the zoo.

Wye Mountain with the boys

Yesterday, Natalie and I took the boys to Wye Mtn. for pictures.  We ate lunch there and pigged out on nachos, funnel cake, popcorn, hot dogs, corn dogs, and bbq sandwiches.  We were miserable afterwards.  Kingston had been asking both of us if we could find the edge of a rainbow.  He was super excited when we told him- there it was.  He wanted a picture by it.  Both boys looked super cute in their matching shirts.  We took Kingston's sling off for pictures as he is still recuperating from breaking his collar bone.  As I looked through the camera lens taking his picture, I realized how grown up he is starting to look- when in the world did that happen?  I'd do anything for that little boy.
