Zoo

I had gotten 4 free zoo passes at a fundraiser, so on one of the more mild days, my Mom agreed to help me take the kids to the zoo.  It was a beautiful day and the kids enjoyed seeing the animals. 

    

When we went to see the lions, the male was sitting 10-15 feet away.  When we were standing there looking at him, he got up and walked right up to Kate and they were nose to nose.  The only thing separating them was the window.  Her eyes got real big as she watched him get closer and closer.  You have to look closely to see the lion thru the blurry window.

These girls probably won’t be happy with me, but I just had to put this picture up.  These girls are some of my very dearest friends.  With one of us living 10 hours away, one of us with 5 kids, one of us with a husband with a terminal illness, we don’t get to see each other much.  But once a year (at least) we get together to shop or this year we just spent the afternoon in my parents pool.  Thanks so much girls, it was fun to spend the day with you and catch up on life! 

Kate had her last t-ball game today.  She improved SO much!  All the kids received a medal, which of course they thought was great.
