Saturday 4 July 2009



Another great day today. We had a huge breakfast then made our way to the Zoo. When we got into the area, we realized that the line that was moving at a snail's pace was in fact the line up to get into the parking lot of the zoo. We sat in line for about 10 minutes, moved about 20 feet and decided to turn around and head back into our neck of the woods. Petrica wanted to stop at Old Navy so we did that, went to Costco (picked up Kaedo's snowsuit - anyone who needs a kid's snowsuit - Costco has them in) and a few other things then headed over to the Ajax Cinema and saw "Ice Age - Dawn of the Dinosaurs". The kids and adults loved it. Jacob was hilarious, repeating all the funny lines and Caleb was a sweet bundle of deliciousness, sleeping through most of the movie and not making a peep while he was awake. We finished up our afternoon at Wal-Mart picking up a choochoo holder for Caleb, some goggles and the Michael Jackson Tribute issue of People Magazine.
Once we got home the boys decided to go for a jump. Jacob wasn't too happy with having three of them in there so he got out and the boys continued to jump and have fun. Not too much planned for tonight. Tomorrow is their last day here so we plan to be at the Zoo for 9:30am when it opens so we can spend the whole day.
The time has gone so fast. I can't believe they are leaving on Monday. It's been great.

The boys look like they're jumping above the netting! They've stretched up so much since last summer. Hope tomorrow works out going to the zoo!

Dad is off to the car races tonight. Leonard called and asked if he would be interested in a ticket - they had an extra one for $15. At the gate would be $20. I said it would be too much work for me to get into the stands and sit for that long so decided to stay home and catch something on t.v.

Hope to catch you sometime tomorrow evening after your day at the zoo.

BIG HUGS TO ALL!

Too bad about the zoo. Do you remember waiting in line for over an hour to get into the parking lot at Squaw Valley? We then had to wait for over 1-1/2 hours to get out and didn't until about 6.30. We'd never seen anything like it in all our years of skiing, it was 3 people per mogul, there were that many people there that day. The memories are so awesome.

Hope you can get into the zoo tomorrow without too much of a wait, but sometimes the waiting is the most fun part of the day. Hope you have a great time.

There is a storm starting to brew tonight and it looks awesome. I just love lightning storms. Had a lovely supper at Jessica's. Had a great day cleaning, shopping and gambling. Been a good week at the casino. Actually, it's the first week I've gone since moving here but I think it won't be the last. I love the slots, anyone who knows me knows that. I'm saving for my Greek holiday

Love to all
