More Wildlife World Zoo

This zoo is soo expensive (even with buy one, get one admission free coupons!), but in an attempt to keep from killing each other on spring break, we headed back. I love that we always find something new and interactive to do there. New this trip...petting zoo and feeding the birds! There were baby goats, llamas and deer that wouldn't stop chewing on our clothes at the petting zoo. So adorable! And, of course, the aquarium keeps bringing up back. The kids were excited about the new koi pond, and we were all excited to see they're adding on to the aquarium...turtles, otters and a 40,000 gallon Amazon River exhibit...open this fall!
Check out the eyelashes on this deer!
And the wet, chew marks on Ryan's shirt!
And they LOVED feeding those birds! I thought they might get a little freaked out by it, but they all did so good!

9 Years Old

Ryan's birthday was also the first day of spring break...all he wanted to do was PARTY all day long! He opened presents at noon, we went out to IHOP for dinner, and had cake afterwards.

ZOMG...Kids!

We were pulling out of the driveway, on our way to school, and I asked if someone would get out and take the garbage can to the street.  You never know how that's going to go...but they both jumped out of the car and did it together.

Sometimes they're good boys....  :)

Have You Ever Heard a Kitten Growl?

One of the funniest things I've seen...she was trying to pick up a little ball and carry it around, but was having a hard time getting her tiny little jaw around it...so she just scooted around on the floor with it, growling at anybody who came near! Oh my gosh...I could've died!

Grandpa Stander

Today most of David's family is in Utah for his grandpa's funeral, and I am sad that I couldn't be there.  But they are in my thoughts and prayers.  Grandpa Stander was dearly loved, and he will be dearly missed!
