In Arizona the kids have "modified year round" school, so the kids get lots of breaks throughout the school year. This week was Fall Break. We have a zoo membership so on Monday Amanda (our babysitter) took the girls to the zoo. Then Tuesday and Wednesday both girls went to camp at Kate's preschool. Sarah had fun seeing all her old classmates who also graduated to kindergarten. Thursday we went to Pump-It-Up and indoor moon bounce place. That is always a blast. Then finally on Friday we met some friends at the zoo . . .
It was 80 degrees outside while we waited for our friend to arrive. Sarah was freezing. To a native Arizona girl 80 is COLD!!
Sarah left her favorite girly girls water bottle by the Jaguar exhibit (also her favorite) so we ran back to get it. On the way we ran into TWO peahens - for those of you who don't have baby einstein flashcard, a peahen is a female peacock. Sarah couldn't help but chase them. I think my mom has a picture of me just like this, chasing a Canadian goose . . .
Aaaah, the frog statue. The kids spent an hour climbing this thing. Poor little Kate, the youngest of the bunch finally got her turn on top. She paused to bask in the sun for a moment.
Cheers! (Those are granola bars) Here's to another wonderful day at the zoo!!
