A Trip to the Zoo

Zach and I took the girls on their first trip to the zoo this past week. I honestly couldn't tell you which one enjoyed it more. They each had a terrific time the entire day we spent there. They were intrigued by every animal we saw. It was wonderful to spend such a gorgeous day with my little loves.

Lily didn't fall asleep until the very end when we were leaving. She was determined to see and say hi to every animal there was. We can't wait to go back!

Faith's First Soccer Game

She is growing up, so quickly that it makes me want to cry. Every time I look at new pictures of her I am baffled at her growth. This past Saturday was her first soccer game, and she did great. Kailee is Faith's best friend. Her mother and I are best friends as well. They are three weeks apart, and we have been having play dates since we came home from the hospital. So, of course they needed to play soccer together this year. In fact, Kailee's dad Taylor is there coach! How fun is that?

After the game we went to one of our favorite places, Jason's Deli. They have a great selection of healthy AND organic items, also super affordable. We love it, and so do both girls. Here is one last shot towards the end of our lunch-

I sure love these sweet little girls.

A Fabulous Weekend

Those two pictures were after dinner at a Mexican restaraunt we love the other night. I can't get over how much they show Faith and Lily's personalities!

Now I know that I have SO many pictures at the park we go to all the time, but today was the first time Zach has EVER been! Can you believe it? We go at least once every two weeks, usually more often. We all spent the day there today, and it was wonderful. Saturday my friend Brandy and her daughter Jayden came over for a sleepover while Zach went to a UFC party, and we had a ton of much needed girl time.

Here are the three little misses playing outside today before we went to the park.

And here are a couple of pictures from our family outing today.

A Beautiful Day and Beautiful Park

You have seen pictures of this park before, possibly because it is one of our most favorite places to venture out to in the city. The girls absolutely love the water, so we usually only go when they will be able to get into it, but the playground is loads of fun as well. There are huge open grassy patches and big hills to climb, and it is right smack in the middle of the city! What a wonderful concept, isn't it?

Sometimes we go here with just the two girls and I, but most of the time we join a friend for a play date. When we went this week, my lovely friend Magen and her twins came along. Their names are Mila and Madelyn and they are utterly PRECIOUS. The girls had such a wonderful day playing! I took WAY too many pictures, of course. I can't help it when we're out, I want to catch everything!

The last few photos in front of the artwork are at the end of the day when they were pretty tired. You can tell by looking at their sweet little faces. They also had the bicycle exhibit going on, and they were all awesome! I bet you can't guess which one was Faith's favorite...

 If you guessed the last one that she is admiring (covered by rhinestones on every inch of space), you are correct! We really had the most wonderful day!
