Zoo!

We went to the zoo again today (May 1st). It was Grandma Holt's birthday, so we took her with us. We had a fun time at the zoo again. The boys always like to see the animals. I have almost the same picture of me when I was little by the lion drinking fountain. I'm sure that my Mom has it somewhere. The boys love to play on the play ground that they have at the zoo as well.


Here is Caleb on the catapiller at the park. He also loves playing on the spider that is behind him. Caleb says some of the cutest things sometimes. We were in the car the other day when I asked Ethan who the first president of the USA was. He told me he didn't know, so I asked Caleb and he said, "George Washington." I couldn't believe that he remembered when I had talked to them about it a month or so ago. Now they both remember who the George Washington is.
Ethan loves to play on the play ground at the park. He is getting so big now. We were in the truck driving yesterday when Ethan says to Caleb, "You're Susan Boyle!" Then Caleb said it back to him and it went on like this for awhile. For those of you who don't know who Susan Boyle is, she was on Britains Got Talent. She was trying out for it. Look on U Tube for her. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lp0IWv8QZY&feature=related

Anyway, we are still trying to move forward.

Day Outing

We decided one weekend that we wanted to get out of the city and go for a drive. We decided to take our gun with us and shoot some clay pigeons. Ryan is really good at this. I think maybe he only missed two or three. I on the other hand, am used to non moving targets. I finally got it at the end.

I like this picture of Ryan. I think he looks great. We found this awesome place to go. It looks like others have found it fun as well.
This is Ethan playing on the hill. He was finding lot of fun things to play with, until he found a piece of glass that cut his finger. It's a good thing that Mom comes prepared! We got him all fixed up and having a treat to make him feel better.Can you see Caleb? He is wearing camo. He is our kid that loves the dirt. He also likes to wander. We have to keep a special eye on him where ever we go. (I guess this is his way to make our life funner!)
We had lots of fun. Ryan especally loved driving his truck into the huge puddles on the road. The water came over the truck. It got pretty dirty. We love being in the outdoors and hope to have may more trips like this to come. The kids are so excited to go camping this year.
