Then Came The Rain...

Friday was downright cold, low 40's and rainy and Thomas had no pre-school.  Thomas and I quietly hung out at home, reading and doing laundry and computer work.  He was very happy when we picked up Jessica and Cameron.  Even though it was cold, we stopped by a different park on our way to the store and the kids played off some of their pent up energy.  Once we got back home,  we read some more and baked oatmeal raisin chocolate chip cookies  That warmed and cheered us all up.We made enough cookies to share a plate with Jessica's activity day leader who's father just passed away.

Fortunately Saturday's weather was much improved because we had planned a trip to the local zoo.  It was Farm Day so in addition to seeing all of the animals, playing on the playground for over an hour and eating our super lunch, the kids got free chocolate milk and ice cream cups.  They loved that!

By the time we got back from the zoo, the weather was really nice so the kids played in the yard until the sun went down.  We finished the day with a trip to Little Caesar's.  I think we got a lot of play into one day.  Someone is tired tonight.  I'm not the only one either.
