Zoo Sleepover

The girls and I got to tag along with a friend's Girl Scout Troop on an overnight at the Zoo!  We had a lot of fun together :)

We slept in an education building (I was glad not to be near animals during the night!) and dropped our stuff off first.  We met the ladies who would be the 'teachers' and played a few games.



Our first stop in the Zoo was near the aquarium where there is breeding of different fish.  These ones are cuttlefish.



There were also sand-dollars and hermit crabs in another tank. 


After this building, we got a behind-the-scenes look at the aquarium. I snapped a picture from behind the moonjelly tank (my favorite!)


We also learned about these "archer fish" that can shoot water from their mouths to move food down from trees (or in this case, the aquarium glass).



We spent the evening in the aquarium, playing more games, and enjoying the creation!





At 11:30......it was finally bedtime!  We shared an air mattress and took a selfie before attempting to go to sleep ;)


In the morning the girls got to do a craft and then we met more animals!  A bearded dragon, an armadillo, a python, and an owl!





We had a great time on our overnight! :)

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...

I hope he's not moving in....
