The ZOO and a Little MOO

I just have to say that a nice spring day can make anyone happy! The past couple days have been sunny, beautiful, and warm and I feel like the happiest person on the planet. With the warm weather we have taken full advantage and spent the majority of our time outside (cleaning will have to wait) because I don't know how long we will keep this fantastic weather.


On Friday we headed out to the zoo with my besties, although Blakely is not old enough to really enjoy it, the toddlers love it and I love being outside walking around in the sunshine and we had an amazing time. I got a pass and I am thinking by the end of the summer Blakely will be responding to seeing some of the animals!

THE CREW! Susie is due any day and was a trooper to let us drag her around the whole zoo!

That evening we all put on our walking shoes and the stoller brigade headed off to "My Favorite Ice Cream Shop" no it is not MY (Emily's) favorite, that is what it is called. I had to explain that to everybody as we were taking the long walk there and they thought I was making the place up! Lo and behold we made it!


MY FAVORITE PICTURE OF ALL TIME, this worker had that look on her face the whole time so disinterested and mad, if I worked at this place I would have a perma grin!

This weekend also included the first bbq, many walks and some park time! Oh spring and summer please be here to stay!
