RODEO!!

Last week, we took the boys for their first experience with the rodeo (thanks Shannon for our tickets!!).  We made our way through the petting zoo, found baby pigs, calves, and sheep, and even got to go to a "farm."  The farm was by far my favorite part.  The boys fed (fake) chickens, collected eggs, planted seeds, milked a cow, and Levi even got to ride a tractor (questions about why Luke didn't ride the tractor should be directed to the horse riding adventure from a couple of weeks ago).
Here are some pictures from our rodeo adventure....

As jealous as Tux would have been, they really wanted to take this one home!

Weekend with the Grandparents

My parents wanted to give me a day "off" so they took the boys for a couple of days.  While I had girl time & a pedi with some friends, an extra nap, and a wonderful date night with my hubby the boys kept their grandparents very busy.  They all four went to a safari park to check out a few animals up close & personal.  They got to meet deer, ostritch, camels, and goats.  I'm not sure who had more fun, the boys or the grandparetns!
After a couple days, as much as I enjoyed my R&R I was so ready to see my boys.  Thanks Mom & Dad for a little break.  There's nothing like napping in the middle of the day, and not stressing about sleeping through snack time!

That camel got a little too close for our liking. 
Don't you know those things spit!!
