thursday 7/11: safina and emery came over to play in the morning, then the kids went to safina and emery's in the afternoon so i could go to the dentist. it was a friend-filled day!!!
friday 7/12: zoo day!!! it was a gorgeous day for a nice relaxing meander around the zoo!! we got to start at the playground and then i followed the kids' lead and we saw whatever animal they requested - it was a lot of walking, but they loved being in control! they were being so well behaved, staying right with me and listening so well that they got to enjoy a few treats! they got a train ride, a sno-cone and then pizza! after the zoo, we went to wegmans and then hung out at home for the night!

saturday 7/13: we spent the entire day as a family doing fun things to celebrate our anniversary! no work for neal, no errands for me! we went to the farmer's market - visisted with aunt sue, got some yummy foods, and did some art. then we went to glen park - the kids were so excited to show me their secret paths they found. i think this is their new favorite park! they love walking in the streams and climbing on the rocks! i ran back home real quick to to put some food from the market in the fridge, stopped and picked up some frozen lemonades, and came back to the park so we could have a picnic! focaccia bread, pesto, and blueberries! then it was time to climb!!! it was HOT and the kids were running all around - it was NAPTIME!!! after nap, we went to king and i for dinner and then yotality for dessert - what a great way to spend the day with our little loves!!!
