Well. SCHOOL'S OUT and summer vacay has officially begun for our family. We spent Saturday at the Houston Zoo - early enough to miss some of the heat and humidity. Here are Hannah and Charlie in a prairie dog exhibit. The kids go through a little tunnel and actually pop up right in the middle of the animals.
Here they are captaining a boat in the children's zoo. What's with the dorky smiles?
CJ was off for Memorial Day so I asked him how he wanted to spend the day and he said, "in nature." Since it was pouring rain I asked if he had any other ideas and he said, "in nature with an umbrella?" We ended up seeing Shrek the Third. The kids (and CJ) loved it and I thought it was pretty funny. The pinocchio part was my favorite - if you've seen it, you'll know what I'm talking about...
Then yesterday was our weekly outing with the RS "moms and tots" group. We went to a fun place called Bounce On It. They have a great new CARS slide and the kids loved it. Lots of races down the slide.
I even went down this slide a couple of times (and have a "slide burn" on my elbow to prove it - ouch!) but luckily, no one got any pictures of me! What are you guys doing for summer break???

Looks like so much fun. We saw Shrek too but Noah didn't think it was too funny, so me and Dave took turns going out. I had no idea that Artie was Justin Timberlake. Weird. I wonder if Cameron Diaz got him that job before they broke up. We're not doing anything fun for the summer except Aspen Grove.
yeah, I wondered that about Justin Timberlake too. I only knew he was Artie from news stories I had heard about it. I had two extra kids here today and it siped me out! I have no idea how you handled 5 kids for 3 weeks!!! % hours almost did me in!
Did you see that hi-larious pinocchio part in Shrek? I was in hysterics! Want to see it again just for that part!
oops, I meant "Wiped me out" not "Siped me out". Plus, I also meant "5" hours, not "%" hours. How many jimmys can I do in one comment? I really must be siped out! hi-larious!
heh heh heh...that pinocchio WAS funny. he's a good non-liar!
we saw the shrek and laughed our buns off. looks like you guys had some fun days.
