Happy 3rd Birthday, Ronni!

Happy Birthday to our little Ronni. She turned the big THREE today!! :) She's getting so big. Isn't she beautiful? She got a Dora doll and a Clawdeena doll from us. One grandma has sent money and she'll get the other gift from the other grandparents at Thanksgiving. We went out to eat at her favorite restaurant for lunch. She is loving today!! :)

Zoo

We went to the zoo this morning. This is the new Kangaroo exhibit they have. Do you see him sitting behind us? Isn't he cute? The new exhibit allows you to walk around with them. You just have to stay on the walk but there's nothing between you and the animals. It was pretty cool!!

Collin was so excited to see the elephants but we couldn't see them. They were so far away. We walked over to another animal and I turned around to see the elephant reaching his trunk out toward the ppl working on the plants. haha!! It was very cool and Collin was SO excited. This is not a zoom. That is how close he came to us.

Carousel. Yes, I was standing backwards between them so I could get these pictures. It was a strange feeling but I didn't fall over so it was worth it. :)

Then... we walked over to the Botanical Gardens. :) We haven't been there in a while. It was a shorter walk than I remembered.

Glass flower pot that Collin thought was awesome and we gook a picture of it.

Welcome to Mulberry Fort!

Look at how beautiful the trees are!! :)

Before we left we had to go to the aquarium. Here's the Alligator Snapping Turtle.

Giant Japanese Crab. Wouldn't that stink to come up on in the ocean? hehe! We were at the zoo from about 10:30am - 4:30pm. I can't believe that we were there that long! LOL! We still didn't get to see everything.

There are some new superheroes in town!!!

The Super Gang is in town, saving the world from super villains. Just this morning they saved the world from an army invasion, a bunch of dragons, a man hanging from the ceiling, and an evil man on a motorcycle (?). hehe!
I can't tell you their secret identities but I did manage to get a picture....

They have super shields, swords, and helmets. They all have super powers too. They can turn their enemies to stone, fly and have super strength. Momma Super was still in her pajamas so obviously they were off saving the world early. Little Super wouldn't look up for the picture so she was obviously trying to keep her identity more secret than the others but as one who has seen her face, I will tell you that she is a cutie pa tootie! :)

Right now....

... what I REALLY wish that I was doing would be working on nanowrimo. However, I shouldn't do that right now because I have children to watch, school to do, a house to clean, and fun to have with the family. I am really running out of time to write. I think I'll need to pull some all-nighters soon for it. hehe!

Favorite song

This is the song that I really wanted Paul and me to dance to but Paul wanted a french song which was really beautiful so we decided for that one but since I can't even pronounce that one, I love this one!!! :) It's from Anastasia. :) Enjoy...

FHE

We went to the gardens near us and Collin and I had some fun walking through the labyrinth built in the bricks.

See how much fun Collin was having. Can you see that smile? He was laughing like that most of the time. He thought it was so fun! :)

Here are the kids on a bench. I dunno what face Ronni was making but cute no matter what!! hehe

Dream home.....

I've always wanted a geodesic dome house. I know... a bit strange but I do! :)
Here's a link to the pdf of a floor plan of one I really really want. It's not quite my dream, there are some changes I would make but I think these things are awesome!!!
