Zoo!

We were due for another family trip to the zoo and since our church was only doing one service in the afternoon, we decided this morning would be the perfect time. We packed a picnic, loaded up the boys and off we went. Sam had a wonderful time and Cole just enjoyed being along for the ride. Sam would tell you he had many favorites - the Komodo dragons, petting a gecko, Jumpy the kangaroo and the giraffes. In fact, he had so much fun he didn't want the outing to end. Picture a tired and hot two year old who doesn't want to go home and you will have a good idea of how we left the zoo. Regardless of the ending, we had a great morning and enjoyed nice long naps that afternoon from both boys!





Sam adored the Komodo dragons. In fact, it was hard to get him to leave. He kept exclaiming 'big lizard, big dragon' every time one would move.

What a relaxed little guy...

This Kangaroo was out in a separate yard while it's enclosure was being cleaned and Sam loved it. Sam named it 'Jumpy' and loved watching it hop around. The kangaroo must have thought Sam wasn't that bad either as he would come to Sam whenever he was called!

Sam had to 'tickle' the Leopard.

Sun River and Portland for Mid Winter Break

Drew had a conference in Sun River OR this past winter and we made the call to tag along for a little vacation.  Things were slightly dampened by the fact that it appears Cole has developed car sickness since the summer. Ugh.  The drive was so long! However, it was worth it in the end and we had a wonderful time relaxing in an amazing little chalet, enjoying the snow, sitting in the hot tub, sledding and skating!  Couldn't have asked for more fun!  A stop at our favorite in Mt. Hood - El burro loco! A glass of wine after our 6 hour road trip turned into 10 hours due to car sickness!  Right before our Owl Walk.  We were told we could walk into the wood and hear the owls. What a bust!  3 cold and tired kids in the dark woods and no owls!  It's now a running joke in our home as the  tour guide kept 'hooting' trying to draw the owl's attention.  If we want someone's attention in the house we often hoot at each other now...
