A Zoo Day

Today was a zoo day for us. We decided to get out of the house and take the kids to the zoo for Carson's birthday. Christian has been very faithful to read to the boys each night from a Children's Bible Story book. The front cover has Noah and the ark with all the animals on it. Caleb will ask each night to see the animals... so either before or after the Bible story Christian will go over the animal names and the sounds they make with Caleb and Carson. You should hear the sounds that come from their room. It is so funny to hear! From roars to hisses. :) The nightly lessons made today's trip to the zoo so much fun. ( Their ages helped too.) We all enjoyed spending time together looking at the animals, playing in the water park, and riding two trips on the train! Here are a few pictures of our day.

You are one strong women to handle all that hospital drama in one week. I am so glad that everyone is feeling better.

Thank goodness everyone is healthy now! You guys just decided to get all your ER visits out of the way, now hopefully you won't have to ever go back. I'm so glad I got to see you the other night. You are looking so good! The zoo looks like fun and Emily is getting so big! Mitchell wants to see his girlfriend soon! Love ya!
