More Animals Please.

We had a busy week while people were off of school for spring break!
We went to Monkey Mountain. While Ian couldn't get into the big play structure, he did play with the slide, the soft climbing animals, and other "little attractions" sprinkled about.

That night, Uncle Jay and guests were out for supper and we had pizza.

The very next day, we went to the zoo. We got there late, our friends didn't stay long, and at 3pm (well into naptime), a young lad said "More Animals Please."

Then we went to the garden on Friday.

The zoo again on Sunday as John and Ian tried to give me some time to get some work done. I think spring is definitely on its way!

Atlanta Trip

We had such a nice time in Atlanta seeing Grandma. Unlike the MN trip, this was relaxing and we weren't packing a million things into a short trip.

We hung out with Christine and her girls for much of the weekend, and that was really fun.

We went to the zoo with Christine and her girls and with a group of gals I correspond with online. Way fun to meet up with them! Very cute babies toddlers too!

I love this pic - don't they look like old men talking about the weather? Or talking about nothing at all?

The Zoo

A belated post. Our first trip to Hogle Zoo. The story in captions.

Look at all of the ducks and swans!

Think I should jump in?

Water (there was a waterfall behind him)

Look Mom!

Elephants!

Look at ME! I'm the main attraction!!

Very cool carousel. Lots of different animals! Ian would have no part in riding one except on my lap.

"That is not a leopard. It's a dog!"

Long shadows. It's time to clean up the grounds.

I found a leaf! It's for you!

After a well-deserved nap, The Pie.
