Glorious Weekend...

That went by way too fast. Friday morning was spent cleaning the house, but then I spent a few wonderful hours at the scrap table while the kids were at school. It had been a really long time. Scrapped some pictures that had been waiting to be scrapped and got to mG's belated birthday card. (Just need to post it now). Once the kids came in and got settled, we headed out to Mimi and Poppy's. That's right, date night!! We ate at our favorite restaurant ever and then headed out to see Fireproof, which we really enjoyed.

Saturday, we picked the kids up and headed out to the zoo with Lance, Pam and their 2 kiddos. The kids had lots of fun. And lo and behold, I remembered my camera. ;)The monkeys were everyone's favorite. Especially when they brought out the food and with all the yummy looking fruit on the table, and they fought over the lettuce.



The biggest monkey in the zoo. My husband, ladies and gents.
The gators. They were all tired and resting. Would have loved to see them swimming around. Oh well.

The giraffe, who, apparently prefers to eat the fence than the food they feed him.
The beautiful white tiger. He's a ham, he was always looking at whoever was taking the picture. Lol.

Sunday was very low key and included church, shopping, lunch, napping, oh and guess who learned to ride without training wheels?


She hasn't quite got the hang of the turns, but she's almost a pro on the straights. And she decided that she needs a new bigger bike, so that's on the Christmas list. We were all very proud, especially Cam. :)
