The zoo tram.
Inside the bear cage (the kids crawled through a tunnel that came out in the bear cage where they could be face to face with the bear...well kinda, cause the bear was asleep in the corner!)

The kids and I spent some time with Gram and Poppy last week. Although Poppy just had a hip replaced not 3 weeks ago, he's up and around and havin' a good time with the kiddos. During our trip we did lots of fun things including riding Barney, fishing in the pond, visiting Gram's patients at the hospital, and playing tee ball. We went to the Rolling Hills Wildlife Adventure Friday. It was a beautiful day to enjoy the animals and just be outside. Landon's favorite was the white tiger while Claire enjoyed the animals she could feed (goats, rabbits, etc). We also got to ride a tram around the large zoo, which was a highlight for everyone. Saturday evening we celebrated Unkie's (Fred) 30th birthday. A few of his friends came over and had dinner and visited into the night. My kiddos enjoyed entertaining and then catching fireflies galore at twilight (we don't have but 3 fireflies in our neighborhood, so this was great fun). Sunday after church we went to the umbrella pool (Hillsboro Aquatic Center) and played for several hours. Landon fell asleep while we were there, but Claire was a regular fish and enjoyed showing off her underwater skills for Gram and Poppy. We came home Monday to rainy weather, but it's been nice to relax after a several days jam-packed full of fun. Thanks Gram and Poppy for an eventful and unforgettable time!
One other thing:
As we were driving home Monday, it started pouring huge raindrops. Landon says "Mom, can't you turn that rain down?" Before I could say anything, Claire responded with "You have to pray to God, he's in control of the rain."
