A GREAT day!

Why was my day so great? Well it consisted of three things that I enjoy.
1. I am a do-er. I can go and go all day long. The more we do the more fun I have.
2. I LOVE spending time with my family.
3. I get so excited about great deals! I know I'm frugal (probably too frugal sometimes) so when I feel like I get a great deal it makes my day!

Last Saturday was one of those days. Jared told me the day was mine and we could do whatever I wanted all day long. Whoohoo!!! To start off I got another culture pass (can we say FREE...Yipee!!!) and this time it was to the zoo. We started the day off pretty early at the zoo and had a great time! We spent most of our time on the Children's Trail with our kids. Here are some pictures of the fun we had:

Caleb loves tractors!

I was impressed that Caleb was willing to pet the goats. Last time we tried this he got very upset and cried for a long time. This time he was a little weiry but as long as we were close he did great!


Here are some of the animals. As we were leaving the park we decided to stop by the elephants one more time since they were never out when we went by. This time they were being fed so we saw them up close. I've decided they are really hairy and ugly!



I love this picture of the baby orangutan. "What are YOU looking at?"


After the zoo we went home and we ALL took a nap. It felt great after being in the sun all morning. When we woke up we went to see the movie "Up" with the kids. It was a little long for them and they were quite restless by the end but it was fun.

When the movie was over we headed to Taco Bell for some free tacos with the purchase of a drink since the Diamondbacks scored more than 6 runs the previous night. It was a great deal!

Once we got home we were all tired and just relaxed until it was time for bed. For me it was a great day!
