Going on a trip

Well next week I am heading out of town for a work trip. Fortunately, I am heading to Louisiana where I use to work. I am looking forward to seeing everyone again, even though that means I have to be away from home and my babies. Ani wants to type her name, ANI. O.k. she is happy now. Well, it is time to put to little ones to bed! See ya soon! Jodi

A day at the Omaha Zoo. We went with some new friends of ours John and Amy. They have two little girls McKinley, 5 and Regan, 1. Ani and Ruston get along with them amazingly. Ani told me that McKinley was her best friend - and Brad too! It wasn't too hot the day we went and we all had a great time.

Ani and her new friend McKinley had a great time. We couldn't resist taking a picture of them on the little elephant statue.

Well, not everyone was excited about the animals. Ruston held on as long as he could, but the dark areas of the aquarium were just too much. He was pretty comfy in his little red wagon.

The aquarium area has a tunnel you walk through. As we walked through this beautiful sea turtle swam over us. The kids wanted to stay in there forever.

Ani LOVES anything that is in the water. She loved looking at this octopus and watching it move around!

Ruston, Ani, McKinley, and Regan had a great time. The gorilla exhibits had windows that expanded into the area. They had so much fun laying in it. The next window we got to had a gorilla right underneath it! The kids loved it. There was one gorilla that was getting everyones attention by hitting the exhibit wall. There strength is amazing!

At the end of our day at the zoo, all the kids played with a giant granite globe that floats on a film of water. They enjoyed it and all of them ended up getting wet. We had to go buy them new clothes so we could go eat dinner!
