Zoo Day

A few weeks back {on Mom's birthday} I met up with all of these monkeys for a day at the zoo.  The two youngest kiddos had never been {and it had been years since we took Jack}, and it was so much fun to watch their excitement as they ran around the park, checking out the maps and pointing and gasping at all of the animals up close.  Even though we didn't see a cheetah and one of the favorite animals they saw was a glimpse of the dinosaur exhibit {?}, it was such a fun way to spend the day with my favorite kiddos {and so fun for Mom to have everyone together for her birthday!}.  Can't wait to do it again!

this kid is too much in the best way

Christmas with the Kiddos {Part III}

The rest of Sunday afternoon involved more indoor snowball fights {seriously the best game}, watching the Seahawks lose {ugh}, and having a yummy dinner with grandma {and of course, had to get her in on yet another snowball fight before we headed back to the city for the evening}.  I loved getting to spend a few days with my nephews and niece and can't wait to see them again as soon as possible!
