Zoo take 2

Monday morning.....I walk into Grant's room where i was staying, and this is what i found.....



My immediate response.... "ETHAN!"

We headed to the Houston Zoo that morning in beautiful 70/80 degree weather! it was almost a shock to my system since last week i was using my ice scraper!


i love wearing pigtails!



cute cute!



ethan saying "cheese!"



this is the best pic i got with the boys...it's hard to make them sit still long enough sometimes!



cute family!



again with the cheese.....



yay sisters!!!





the boys....



Ethan got his work out in for the day...




i actually had a slight panic attack at the zoo. There were SO many people, and tons of kids, i felt claustrophic, which is very unlike me. Everywhere i looked i kept seeing people everywhere with kids going crazy, and i had to really pray that the anxiety didn't get out of control. I've lived overseas around millions of people in one city, and never had a problem, but the Houston Zoo=scary. :)

Sarah and I drove to OKC yesterday with the boys. For being 8 hours in the car, they did pretty well. There was a lot of singing and nose wiping, but what're ya gonna do right?

Grant got all serious when we first left and said "why isn't daddy thankful?" Grant thought that since Mike stayed in Houston that he wasn't thankful at all, ha!
i don't know how these children don't weigh 300 lbs, they eat all the time!!!! No wonder people shop at Sams, ha!!

I just made my first batch of homemade laundry detergent, and am SO excited!!!! totally makes my day.

Tomorrow, our plans are to go to Daniel's parents house to spend the day with his family. There will be about 30 people, bless Sherry's heart!!! We love spending Thanksgiving with Daniel's family, there is always a lot of food and family, which i love!!!! I grew up never living near extended family, so our holidays were always really small with it just being the 4 of us. So i look forward to holidays where other people come, ha! Two of our students are joining us tomorrow too. It is def a recipe for a good time!

hope everyone is doing well and enjoying family, friends, and food!!

love

laura
