Busy Weekend!

It seems like when you have children the time just flies buy...I honestly don't know where my days go sometimes? This weekend Brian and I wanted to get out of the house and do something outdoors. The weather has been beautiful, but dreadfully hot! It has already hit in the 90's and the summer months are not even close! Yikes, I think we are in for a miserable, hot summer! Thank goodness for pools!
Anyway, on Saturday we met up with Julie and the kids to go to the zoo. We wanted to get an early start because it was supposed to be so darn hot that day. We met at 9:30 and started off on a good foot. We went to see the sea lion show which was very entertaining for Christian and Bennett. Christian is a little impatient for the show to start and he kept screaming come on, come on! Wonderful manners our little guy is developing...huh? When the show was over it was so stinking hot that we went to see some animals that were indoors and where there was air conditioning. That led us to the monkeys! I think Christian and Bennett wanted to desperately get out of monkey land because they could not eat their popcorn indoors! We were on our way to the tigers and some little munchkins became mesmerized by some camels! Well many times we have tried to get Christian to ride one, but he always gets scared. Bennett was raring to go...so off they all went to try it out! I stayed behind to watch the babies and take some photos. I did not think Christian would get on, but somehow Brian and Julie convinced him to do it! They both of course loved it and wanted more, more!!! When that diversion was over we made our way to the tigers and then that was enough of the zoo and the heat!
We all went to lunch at Chappy's Deli and then home for a nap!

Sunday was a busy day too. We all got up and went to church. We went to breakfast afterwards at this knew little place called Berogues (something like that). It is a new meat and three restaurant on 280 with great breakfast. The place is small a little too small to have children with you to eat. Henley knocked over a full glass of water in my lap and Christian was talking VERY loudly...everyone could hear and see exactly what are kids were doing! People were even laughing and commenting on Christian's response to the water spill..UH OH Henley spill, UH OH! So embarrassing!!! When are wonderful breakfast was over we headed to Lowes to get some more plants to pot in to our planters around the driveway and front porch! I also added some cucumbers to my garden of tomatoes, green peppers and jalapenos! We put up the water slide for Christian to play in while we worked and Henley napped! When Henley woke up we put her in her bathing suit and tried out the water with her! She loved it! I knew she would because she loves the bath tub! I got some video of them in the water slide, but not much because someone was naked! I do not think anyone wants to see Christian naked running around! Brian was power washing something...so it looks like a silent old home movie!
