ZOO DAYS...

We had a fabulous time at the Audobon Zoo in New Orleans on Saturday. This was Isabella's first time to go. She would "oohhh" and "ahhhh" over all of the animals. Abigail and Elijah really like going. They even got to pet some snakes. The best show at the zoo is the sea lion exhibit. We got to meet a sea lion named lillie. She was so adorable. enjoy the pics.

School Play

The kids had their annual school play on Friday. It was a coybow theme so the kids had to dress as cowboys, and cowgirls. Elijah and Abigail both had speaking parts. They both spoke beautifully! :) Here are a few pics of the kids. The play was approximately 30 mins long..and since I have a second grader and first grader...I got to watch the same show twice....(yea me). Elijah (a.k.a. my little ham) decided that as they were closing the curtains for the first act, he would take a bow. Yeah..his shyness is really wearing off. hahaha

Elijah's pics are not as clear as abigails...mike took those shots. :)




My little cowgirl..she is getting so tall!
