Memorial Day Weekend


We had a great weekend. Well, I did anyway, and isn't that all that matters?  It started off with Mickey Mouse shaped pancakes Saturday morning and ended with a nice surprise appearance by the sun late Sunday afternoon.  In between, we spent some great family time together not only at home but also a trip to Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium in Tacoma, where Lainey and Daddy rode a camel of all things and we got to see some animals we've never seen before.
This peacock was greeting everyone just inside the entrance. 
Lainey telling the reindeer her Christmas list already

Beau loved looking at the fish and sharks in the aquarium. 
I think it was mainly because he got to escape the stroller. 
My favorite parts of any day: naptime and pigging out on popcorn!
We also spent quite a bit of time assembling a much needed table and wall unit in the play room.  It's finally starting to look like our house.  Well, the play room is anyway!

When the sun appeared, we bolted for outside, digging out the tee-ball set and bubbles. Lainey of course found herself a "cute little guy" to play with.
You know you had a great weekend when you're still feeling the afterglow, days later.
