I planned for us to relax and not do much during Spring Break, and that somehow turned into a week full of adventure! I guess the best plans are those that come up unexpectedly!
A friend of mine had invited us to go to the zoo this Tuesday a few weeks ago. I wasn't sure I wanted to bring the boys out anywhere that major crowds go over Spring Break by myself, so I debated for a while. On Monday evening, while starting to get lunches packed for the zoo, I told Jonathan I wasn't sure I really wanted to go. He commented that he'd like to join us, so our almost non-existent zoo trip turned into a family day.
The zoo was pretty crowded, but the weather was beautiful and we were prepared to be patient. The boys were really well behaved and it was a gorgeous day, so we had a great time!

| Caleb was our official map navigator of the day. Anytime we finished at one animal, he would open the map to help us find the next place to go. |

| With the time change, we were there while the cats were up and playing. It was fun to see so many active animals. |

| Hi Mom |
 |
| Caleb and I watching the apes...this one was really close to the glass. He and another ape were stealing hay/grass from each other in a sneaky way. It was fun to watch! |

| All three of my guys froze at the same moment to watch a helicopter land nearby : ) They are all so alike! |

| Aaron passed out before we even made it to the highway. He fell asleep with his hand in his snack container! |
