Tuesday we went to the zoo. The perfect day for the zoo! I took Cait out of school early which she was so proud of. There was no one there and the animals were so active. I haven't been that amazed by the animals and my children's reactions as I was Tuesday. It was a great day. And the baby animals were so fun. Why do we grow out of being fun? 

Yes that is one of the three baby tigers. They were just born this summer and look how big they already are?
After the zoo we stopped at my Grandparents house. It was my grandma's birthday Monday so we took her a big cupcake. My grandpa has Alzheimer's but he was very cheerful and even knew who I was when I got there. He told great stories of his days in the navy and those Sea Going Bell Hops - marines :). It was great and I am loving all the visits I have made to their house lately.
Thursday we went and hung out with Aunt Heather. Uncle Eric was having a bachelor party and Dave wanted Dawson there so I had to drive up after achievement days. But it was a very nice and relaxing visit.
And Saturday we had weddings all day! My cousin Sara got married at 8:45 a.m. in the Bountiful Temple. And then Eric (Dave's brother) got married at 12:20 p.m. in the Salt Lake Temple. Both were wonderful and I love being reminded of the blessings of the Temple and eternal families. I don't know Sara's new hubby, but Eric's wife Alison is great and we are so happy they found each other. It was a long day and I wore the worst possible shoes so my feet were sore, but it was worth it. Plus I got a really pretty tulip center peice from Alison that I love so it made it even better. Congrats to both the new happy couples.
And today, Cora was playing with some hand-me-down decorations I got from my sis-in-law and got the bucket stuck on her head. Her fat lip makes the pic even better.

I wish I had more fun than a bunch of doctor visits.
Love the bucket stuck on the head!
It's true why do things stop being as fun as when we were kids... I guess it's a good thing we have kids so we can remember to find joy in the little things again!
Zoo in the spring - that is a great idea - and babies - you have inspired us!
