Zoo Day

I have a lot on my mind today. I spent the weekend at a Mom Heart conference in Dallas, this was the second year I’ve gone and it just keeps getting better. Soon I’ll write about it but for now I’m still soaking it in and trying to put things into practice.

So instead of that I’ll share our trip to the zoo!

We intended to go Sunday, it was Cade’s birthday and that’s what he picked to do.

Then Brian suggested we wait and go Monday because he had to work Sunday afternoon but would be off Monday… Cade was agreeable so that was our new plan.

Monday morning Brian woke up feeling sick… we hung around for the morning waiting on him to feel better with no luck. I had decided to take them by myself when sweet Cade offered to wait one more day so Brian could go with us.

I am so proud of Cade for being flexible and understanding when plans didn’t work out the way we intended… wish everyone in our family had been so understanding, but we’re still a work in progress!

Brian was still feeling bad this morning so the boys and I loaded up and went without him. I drove the big blue truck to Tyler all by myself… Woohoo!!

The boys loved the maps and had a great time figuring out where we were and where we should go next. We walked the entire zoo… twice!

The played and played until I finally drug them away. Next time I’ll take my Kindle to entertain me so they can play as long as they want!

It was a Good Day!!
