Our friends...Nate & Sofi

Zoo Atlanta

Today we went to the zoo with some really good friends of ours...Teri, Sofi, and Nate. The boys had not seen their friend in a long time, so it was good for them to have some time together. We saw all the animals but the boys seemed most impressed with the reptile exibit of snakes, lizzards, eels, iguanas, snapping turtles, etc. It was so...well...boy! When we went to the gorilla exibit, there were 3 babies and two of them were fighting over a dead branch. The mom jumped up on the rock and calmly took away the branch & jumped back down with it to solve the argument. My friend Teri & I looked at each other & said, "Some things are the same." I feel like I'm always solving a dispute around here. I think I could learn something from the gorilla....just take the branch calmly away & walk off & go to another "place."

Washington Farms Pumpkin Patch

Two weeks ago, we took a trip to a nearby pumkin patch, Washington Farms. The farm had hayrides, a cow train, and a corn maize. The boys were really excited to go and we ended up having fun even though we had some "National Lampoon's vacation" moments. The boys got a pumpkin, went on a hayride, and did part of the corn maize.

Andrew out for the count!

When the boys got home from school today, we gave them a Webkin that is a bat. It is a Halloween webkin and it was a huge hit! They got to decorate their pet's room on the computer with haunted house stuff. I gave them a clue each morning to what the suprise was and I think they had almost figured it out by Friday. As you can see, they passed out after an exciting day :)
