Zoo day

a

On Monday Brad had taken the day off since the boys didn't have school. We were supposed to go on an adventure in the snow, but ended up taking Declan to see Dr. Chilcote. After our appointment we decided to go to the zoo. The boys had a great time. We used our membership tickets to ride the carousel and feed the penguins! 

The boys loved checking out the Komodo dragons and the statue outside the exhibit.

Here's Declan after feeding the penguins their fish!

Checking out the lions on the savannah!

 More penguins! 

The new tiger Bummi was sunbathing so we go an up close view of him! It was a wonderful afternoon. 

After the zoo we went to Scuttlebutt for dinner with Mao, Pop and cousins Doug and Sandy! 

Lego Build

Declan is an amazing and creative Lego builder. Today he made an Iron Man hand all by himself! He designed and created it.

Snow Day

We had just enough snow to go for a ride down our big hill. Both boys absolutely loved and screamed with joy. The rode was so slick that I had a hard time getting us stopped as we flew towards the metal mailbox! We landed safely and did it again all morning long! 

A not so snowy snow day

 We had a snow day with hardly any snow at our house. The boys were so excited to go out and play in the snow, but there wasn't anything to play in! We went for a chilly walk on the trail instead.

50th Anniversary Party

Today we celebrated Mao and Pop's 50th Wedding Anniversary with our family. We went to Buck's Cafe for brunch. It was delicious and everyone had a great time.

Uncle Todd entertained the boys by teaching them to roll their hot wheels off the steps and fling them into the party room. Wesley didn't really understand the rolling part, so he was just throwing the cars.
