Great weekend...
We woke up this morning and spontaneously decided (kind of rare for us) to go to the zoo. It was cool, but not freezing and since we have a family pass, we don't have to feel guilty about not spending the whole day there. 
It was probably September or October since we last went and what a difference it makes with Henry. I don't think he actually saw the animals before this time! He was thrilled with everything. I think the seals might have been his favorite. He kept saying "more coming!" although it was the same 2 seals who kept swimming by. The seals were always Hannah's favorite too.
Hannah's new favorite building is full of butterflies so we made a quick stop there on our way to Africa.
We stopped for a picnic lunch near the giraffes and were home in time for Henry's nap.
The afternoon was spent bringing out the patio furniture and cleaning up the yard a bit. Jack had a friend over and the two of them and Hannah spent the whole afternoon looking for worms. I think they ended up with 15!
We had a quick visit from Eri & Mike & Bennett on their way to a party & Bennett was pretty happy with our little car. What a cutie!

Looks like you had a good time at the zoo. We'll have to get out with you guys one of these days.
Those photos are so great! The kids are super cute, and I really like that unconventional giraffe one. I could easily believe from his expression that Bennett is actually driving a car.
Aren't rooms full of butterflies the greatest? They have something like that here sometimes at the Museum of Natural History, and it's always a real treat for me, though Alison finds it a little creepy.
