Another great weekend...

We stayed in town this weekend and to be completely honest, were pretty lazy, at least as lazy as you can be with a very active 18 month old! We kept ourselves busy, but we kept busy with fun activities rather than working around the house. We started our weekend with a trip to the zoo. We headed out fairly early in the morning in hopes of beating the crowds, but unfortunately, it seemed as though every other zoo-goer had the same plan we did. I guess perfect weekend weather will do that. We did fight the crowds for a few hours though until the heat and exhaustion finally got the best of Graham. He was sleeping soundly in his car seat before we even pulled out of the parking lot to head home!
ROAR!!!

Graham was impressed with the sea otters.


There was some sort of farm festival going on this weekend at the zoo so there were many cool vehicles for kids, both big and little, to climb on!

I think the Olson boys would love one of their very own!

We stopped to listen to a children's band. Although Graham was a bit too apprehensive to dance with the crowd of kids, he did accept the maraca and shake it to the music while I held him.

After breakfast this morning we took a walk and decided to explore a new park. We had the entire place to ourselves! Here is Graham playing with the diggers.

It's hard to see, but Jeff is holding a giant grasshopper on a wood chip for Graham to see. Despite my coaxing, this is as close as Graham would go. In his defense, it was a really big and ugly bug!

Graham wrapped up his weekend with a dip in the pool
