Great Day!

The temperature out was a bit chilly, but aside from that, it was a fantabulous day. Got to sleep in, even though I hadn't planned on even trying to, seeing as how I wanted to be up and out the door by 9 to head to the zoo. Well, got out of her shortly before 11, so a little behind schedule. Went and picked up Kelly and the kids and headed for the zoo. No line really (like 5 people ahead of us) and all the parking you could possibly want. We parked in the slightly out of the way free parking in the north lot (the north gate is closed during construction or something). But hey, it was free! The kids behaved themselves the entire time, didn't have a lot of crowds to deal with, and quite a few of the animals that were hiding last time were out, and most of the ones we just plain missed our last trip were out and about. Got some great zoo pics to scrapbook between the two recent trips to the zoo. Today's yielded a couple fabulous photo's of bald eagles and I'm going to print out and frame one for my dad for his birthday. if only I'd had a better resolution camera, then it would have been cooler.. I think it'll be fine for a 4x6 print though... Anyhow, the day was great, went out to a late lunch early dinner then came back here for a few. Come to find that the "watchmaker cases" I'd ordered last weekend had arrived. Open up the box all excited to find that they weren't what I was expecting. They were waaaaay smaller than I wanted. Luckily the company I ordered them from is cool and includes a postage paid return postage card and gives a 100 percent refund. So I'll be returning them Monday and looking for what I really want... After taking Kelly and the kids home, the boys and I hit the mall and had some coldstone icecream since they were on their best behavior all day. So all in all it was a great day!
