Friday we were ready for the house to be photographed. We scrambled right up until the last minute, but we did it! By the time we had breakfast it was 11:30! The girls had a granola bar and a little bit of food, but we were all starving.
IHOP was the perfect place to go after picking up a crate for Miss Twilight at
PetSmart. She is not liking this moving thing either because she has to come in the car
every time we leave the house now.
On Saturday, when the other photographer came for the still shots, we thought it might be a good time for a little school shopping. I love Kohl's. They have the best deals - especially Labor Day weekend!
After taking Twilight back home Friday (after IHOP), we headed for a family outing to the zoo. Although Zeek* and I were completely exhausted from the entire week of non-stop work, we wanted to do something fun for the girls. And, of course, our new goal is to keep the house clean. We decided to do something we haven't done for years on our zoo trips- ride the train! It was quite a lovely ride and it involved sitting which Zeek* and I appreciated!
Then we went in to feed the
Lorikeets, another thing we don't do often. The girls are old enough now that they love it. (It used to freak them out.)
A couple of my monkeys . . .
I bet I have a picture somewhere of Sarah sitting on this when she was 2 or maybe even younger! The girls love playing on these little statues and always have.
A little bit of ice cream to cool down on a warm day never hurts!
One ticked off and tired girl. I think she's mad we won't carry her. We get this look a lot lately. We call her the queen of hearts. "Off with their heads!", "I need a pig here!", well you get the idea.
