- Lilly and I went to the zoo last week. It is one of our favorite places. Es;ecially for Lilly. She is always asking if we can go to the zoo. Usually around 4:00 in the afternoon, but we were actually able to schedule it and go. We loved it and she wanted to see everything. We didn't make it everywhere, it is a large zoo, but we did see the important things. She is very interested in crocodiles right now. It is so cute the way she says it and we try to throw in into conversations whenever we can. We have found these toys that she can play zoo with. She takes them everywhere and is obsessed. We have to have a male, female and a mama for each that we have been able to find. I have been very impressed with the toys and Lulu has only managed to eat one giraffe's leg.
She creates her own zoo. You have to love toys that promote imagine and creativity like that. It always makes me smile. We finallyfound her some beloved crocodiles.
- For Mother's Day I received tickets to go to Mamma Mia downtown with Mary. I saw the play a few years ago with my mom and Tanya. It was so fabulous and I didn't stop talking about it for months. It was the perfect Mother's Day gift. Mary and I went out that night for a girl's night and thoroughly enjoyed outselves. Although it was a very late night for her. I got her diet coke and a shake with whip cream in hopes to give her a little bit extra energy. She still got tired. If you have an opprotunity to see the play it is so well worth it's money. I am determined to take Adam next time it is in town.
- Matt and Tanya came for the weekend. My dad was in Ks. delivering a car and hanging out with them. He flew out on Saturday. It was a nice visit with my father even though it was short. He was able to help Boston with his trombone. We hung out and had a good time. It is always a good time when they come visit, especially since they are comfortable enough at my house that it is just relaxed. I don't have to entertain. We just hang out. Tanya even got Matt to have a pedicure while he was here. I was shocked. I couldn't ever get Adam to do that. Matt complained though and said he would never do it again. His feet hurt worse afterwards. Crazy man.
- We have great neighbors at our new house. We had a block party this last weekend. We had a bbq, played games, and chatted. It was so fun and great to learn more about our neighbors. We were really blessed with this neighborhood. Lots of friendly people and kids. It works great for us.
- Lilly and I went on a field trip with Zane's school class yesterday. It was so much fun to see him interact with his friends. We went to a museum that had an outdoor farm attached that focused on the early 1800's. Lilly had so much fun watching all the animals and we were able to get so close to them. They have cats that live on the farm and are very independent. You see bowls with cat food sat around the farm. We found a family fishing and one of the cats had taken up fishing with them and was patiently waiting for them to catch something. When the boy did the cat was so excited although it was catch and release and they threw him back in. But it was so cute to watch. Zane is so such a sweet kid. He makes me absolutely nuts sometimes, but still held my hand in front of all of his friends. I sure love him and had a great time.
- Lilly comes up with the craziest things. I told her we had to go pick up Mary from Gymnastics last week and told her we had to go. She informed me that she didn't have a car yet and then that she wasn't old enough to drive. She couldn't drive until she turned 4. Where does she come up with these things?
- My car has been in the shop for the last week. It is a long story and I will blog about it later. It is a headache, but I keep reminding myself that I am blessed.
