Zoo on Mother's Day

I know this is way late, but the pictures are so cute!  The Jacksonville Zoo has a deal that mothers get in free on Mother's Day. Sarah has brought my nieces up a couple times to visit and go to the zoo with us. We thought this was another great opportunity, so the Westover's came up on Mother's Day weekend. It was a first for Jeff to see our zoo.  We had a fun time on Saturday - feeding the turtles at the park and playing on the swings.

 Somehow, Adam and I volunteered to watch our friend's four children for the night as well. Their plans fell through at the last minute and we were happy to watch their kids. So, my nieces got some extra playmates that evening. They all had a great time.

 Here they are having a sleepover in the office while Sarah reads a bedtime story. 

 On Mother's Day we headed to the zoo after church. We saw lots of animals and finally got to ride the train! Unfortunately, Emily was starting to get sick and wasn't feeling too good. But, Laura had a good time, thanks for coming up to visit!
