Super Girl's 1st visit to the Zoo and our trip...

Thanks Hot Mama for the referral to the Elephant Song...it's perfect!
Here's a slide show of our adventures at the zoo...


We had a lot of fun in Cali. We drove out on Friday. That pretty much killed Friday.

Saturday we were going to watch our nephews play soccer, but our car had other ideas. We had to replace our battery. Then we went back to the house we were staying at and cooled off in the pool until we had to get ready for the wedding. We went to Tall Boy's cousin's wedding (one that we thought would never get married). It was beautiful, fun and tasty! They had a candy table and little candy bags that said "who knew life could be so sweet". They also had a really cute cake, it was just a small cake on top for them to cut, then they had tiers of cupcakes below that! The food was pretty good, we liked the chicken and fruit salad. We got to see almost all of Tall Boy's family, and met the newest member, our 2 1/2 week old niece! During the reception I accidentally locked our keys in the trunk. Luckily the car was open and Super Boy just had to climb through the back seat to unlock the trunk from the inside. Anyway, that was Saturday.

Sunday we tried to go to our old church, but they were having a special meeting at another building. So we dropped by our friend's house, and they fed us lunch. Then we went to a birthday party at my sister's house. We got to see almost all of my family and meet my 6 month old niece! What a cutie pie! We swam and ate dinner. We had cupcakes and Super Girl opened presents from Gma and Gpa. We said our goodbyes and went back to the house we were staying at. i got to catch up with one of my best friends (and sister-in-law) We stayed up way too late (1:30am) talking about life and dreams and goals. It was so great to reconnect! I miss her already.

Then Monday morning we packed it all up and came home! It was so hot while we were there, I guess we are fully acclimated to the weather here! It was nice to be home again, but I'm having trouble getting back into my routine. I'm so tired! I guess too many nights of little sleep while we were gone (and since we've been back). Anyway, here's another slide show, this one of our trip...enjoy!

It looks like a fun trip. Thank goodness your car problems didn't stop you from having fun! How is your sis-in law? I totally love those early morning chats. Does she have a blog?
