Wednesday May 22

It was a very long and busy day....
Dad took some hours off today because Elsie wanted him to go to the zoo with her for her class field trip.
We all decided to go :)
The parent volunteers were assigned to other kids in the class to take care of while we were at the zoo.
Well, there we so many parent helpers....that each group had their own kid, and one other, maybe two.
So not too hard to keep track of the kiddos :)
We were assigned Lucy Little.
Elsie and Lucy are great friends.
Anyway....we got a late start to the bus, and then half way to the zoo, Mrs, Grayson forgot the zoo money, so they turned the bus around only to find out it was down deep in her purse the whole time :)
So we were a little late to the zoo, and had about 1 hour and 15 minutes to go through the zoo.
Not much time....but we did it.
I think we saw most everything.
The kiddos had a lot of fun.
After the zoo, we all gathered at the Discovery Center.
It sure is a cool place to go.
There were so many fun hands on things for the kids to do.
It was fun watching them (and dad, he was having as much fun as the kiddos :)
After the Discovery Center, we walked across the bridge to a park and had our lunches and played for a while before they all loaded the bus again.
When we got home, I got Port down for a nap.
Then we did a few chores around the house...mostly laundry.
Tonight was activity days.
We took the girls to the temple and took pictures of them....which they will be scrap booking at our next activity.
I think it was a fun activity.
The girls enjoyed it.
Little did I know it would be one of my last activities with them....cause after that, Brent and I met at the church where I received a new calling.....
You will have to wait to find out.
But I have a feeling I will be kept pretty busy.
After that, we ate dinner together as a family, then dad headed off back to work.
It really was so great to have him here on such a busy day.
It would have been a horribly terrible headache of a day if he wasn't around :)
*****
And we are excited that we are actually gonna go camping this weekend!!!!!
It seems like forever since we have been out camping.
It will be a short trip, but we knew we had to take the opportunity now.
Cause June is already really really busy....don't know when we will be able to get out next.
I am excited and I think it will be a good thing for our little family right now.
