Zoo Day :)

Today was such a fun day!  Nick took the day off of work and we loaded the kids up in the van and went to the zoo.  It has been such nice weather this week and we couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day.  Warm and sunny with a nice breeze...it doesn't get much better than that!  Here are some pictures from our day :)

 Combing the goats at the petting zoo.

 Moose!

 These bears were play fighting...it was really fun to watch :)

 Gabe, very intensely checking out one of the animals.

 Such a silly Hannah...do you notice she has no shoes on...lol :)

 Leah was so good the entire day.  Nick and I took turns wearing her in the carrier.  I made sure that she got in some pictures, because I always feel like she get's left out of pictures, since she is usually in the carrier with me and I am taking the pictures.

 Daddy and his two biggest monkeys!

 This is what I get when I ask them to smile nice lol.

 Believe it or not this was the best of the pictures of me and the kids....oy vey!

 So silly!!

 Isn't this disgusting?!  He looks like he is trying to reach out and get you...YUCK!!

 LOVE this picture!!

Adorable koala bear :)

I am so thankful for days like today where we can all relax and simply spend time as a family.  It really makes me appreciate the blessings that my husband and children are!

Crawling...

I cannot believe that my baby is crawling!  (Insert sobbing here...)  She is not allowed to be growing up this fast :(  She thinks she is really big stuff lol, and is getting closer and closer to keeping up with her big sister and big brother :)

Leaves!!

Family night at the Truck Patch

We had so much fun with our small group at Hershberger Truck Patch family night!  Pick pumpkins, riding horses and eating kettle corn made for a super fun night!

Cheese Chase!

Me and my running buddy!  Hannah and I ran in the Swiss Cheese Chase this past weekend :)  We did the one mile fun run, and she ran the entire way!  So proud of my girl!!

 Cheering squad!

So incredibly proud of herself!!

Blast off!!

A week or so ago I was at Target with the kids and we found this really fun rocket :)  It was on clearance, so it was only $2.00!  We had so much fun shooting it off with the kids!  Our neighbors may have thought that we were nutty but we had a "blast."

 Crazy kids!

 The cast of characters...baking soda, vinegar and the rocket.

 Blast off!!

 Hopefully someday when the kids are older they will remember their silly mom and dad and shooting off rockets in the front yard :)
