Taking full advantage of my Zoo pass this year!

I have found that if you go to the zoo frequently, eventually you actually see all the animals doing stuff..Its fun. Today we got to see the elephant eat, move and hit this hay.
It was hot..I love that the zoo put in these misters which is what the girls are doing in this picture :) Getting misted

More misting..I think the kids loved these the most

Sorry Tanner I tried not to get any more than the one picture! Seeing the elephant move was pretty cool and there were seats!

Kaylee ,Kamrin, and Hallie..Dyllan would not get in this, and seriously I told Tanner One picture I wont ask again

And here it is unfortunately Dyllan doesn't want to be in pictures either! and Hallie was not wanting to participate either

I Love this one! Darn Tanner ;)

This was my attempt at a family picture before the promise of only one.. Check out Wrandi and Kaylees faces someone should be rolling their eyes! Tanner is a good couple inches taller than I am now. Grr!

Sad to say I did not get to see the Giraffes..The new one had just been born and there was a no visitor policy! :( But I did find out Tanner likes them too

Zoo with friends

We got to go to the Zoo with our neighbors Grace, Clair and for me Melissa. Hallie and Kamrin LOVE these guys! Its really fun having great people next door.
This dumb ball... I said run girls no one is on the ball, reached down and got my camera and this is the picture I got.. Grr... I like our girls but bot so much the strangers!

Hallie has this thing with the turkeys and "peahawks" which is so far my favorite name for that bird! This is her I'm smiling with my teeth smile

My girls love these tiger, grace loved it, Clair looks a little hesitant though :) I would have thought it was HOT!

Just in case you haven't seen the tiger or haven't seen it move TA DA! It was moving and playing with this bucket

Oh Hallie, my little bug lover.. She wants one of these. Its an African millipede. She thinks it will tickle her and Please can I have one mom. EWW

Swimming in Cherry Village

We had so much fun swimming! Thanks Wrandi! (for getting your camera and burning a disk also) This is Hallie before we left, she was cold and wanted to be a burrito
Kamrin and Dyllan, my poor girls want goggles so bad..I will probably get them some, but seriously I did not see Tanners or Dyllans eyeballs till we were done in the pool ;)

Hallie has loved to go swimming since she was 6 months old

Tanner is really such a fun brother. He makes the coolest stuff out of ANYTHING, but the best is that he still takes time to PLAY with Dyllan and invites him to be a part of what him and his super cool older jr high boys are doing. Its really nice to see. We are lucky Wrandi caught a picture or two of him

He may not agree, but if you cant actually get away away from a camera you just better pose.

Luckily Hallie has got Kamrin who is just as sweet with her....She isnt in jr high though...we will see!

Kamrin is loving swimming! She did not leave the deep end!

And I multiplied over fathers day weekend and had 5 kids instead of 2

AWWW! A giraffe just for me :) I thought I was doing such a good job organizing these pictures in day to day activities, alas the order of the pictures was backwards :( Over a year of blogging and I still haven't figured out how to upload the way I want. I suck.
Kenya liked the Foosa.I was a little disappointed. It was eating a melon? According to the movie I watched (Madagascar) they eat lemurs and other animals. Not FRUIT!

The Foosa from Madagascar is actually back there but they couldn't figure out my instructions so TADA 5 kids no Foosa!

I'm so glad these guys are such good friends. Honestly aside from Kamrin and Tymber being BOSSY Hallie and Tyme couldn't have a better older sibling. They made sure they saw EVERYTHING

These Tigers are so awesome! If you look close you will see that all 5 of them were actually touching the tigers, Kenya has one little finger on it!

They don't even know how close to being eaten they came ;)

Poor Kenya, always in the stroller. I think she had fun, she had snacks and a drink, sounds fun to me!

Aren't these guys funny, Hallie was a little to cool to run screaming

Water dinosaurs OOOH!

This is not the most awesome of pictures, but everyone was in it and this was a weird animal!

This picture. That is Tyme under there. He isn't afraid to do anything! He was my worst fear for these couple of days! I was sure I would lose him! But no sweet as can be (only a couple of scares!)

Hallie, Grace and Charlie, these guys had so much fun jumping in..Thanks to Jen for letting me bring a swarm of kids to the pool!

That is Hallie back there..My own little Tyme She looks like she is sitting on air here :)

Oh Tyme.. He has fun anywhere! and with anything..Kenya was not going to be happy in this pool so he has her floater

These two.. I was lucky to get one of them together! But they look like their having fun right? I traded Kamrin for Dakota the last day the kids were here (my mom has a fairy sleepover every year. NO BOYS or NON BELIEVERS ALLOWED!)

Ode to Kenya aka little doll face or dolly

She was just the sweetest little thing I couldn't believe she was as easy as she was.

Just look at this little face. I know she didn't get in a lot of the pictures where she wasn't in the stroller but putting her in and out is HARD! So here she is on her own 86 the stroller!

Hee Hee

So from the comments my warning of EWW and eww wasn't enough :) to take your mind off of that this is the blog I got it from, most of the pictures are funny, just awkward family pictures! Enjoy http://awkwardfamilyphotos.com/ Be warned the picture below is on there and may cause vomiting

EWW and eww

So me and Chris are thinking of doing this, maybe we will put our naked girls hanging on our legs and letting our legs show I guess. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Who does this? (hopefully no one who sees my blog)(but ewww if you did)
The tag for this photo...Sometimes a man can be too supportive (I just threw up in my mouth a little)

Kamrins swimming lessons

I know, I know picture of a picture so lame, but I thought these were so fun. Having the kids under water for a picture is such a good idea
This really should be down by the picture of Kamrin diving...These two need help. It was awful to hear when they both hit the water (this is Tymber)

Kamrin having fun as usual

She really worked hard and listened to her teachers.. I was impressed with her skills!

Diving boards are fun

I'm so proud of her

She is just so beautiful! Honestly look at that smile

And here is Kamrins dive..In case you haven't been watching divers this is the new dive, we are going to call it the horseshoe :) Feet always go in first when diving right? I'm not sure what the two girls in the background are doing pulling their suits to make a giant air pocket?

Look at these NUTS!

So I'm watching Kellyes kids today and suddenly I have a group of Trick or Treaters in the office. What kills me is that the boys both chose too dress up as girls, and Kamrin apparently thinks cell phones and dogs are allowed in jail?
Here's Hallie (yes I know her hair is crazy) with her new Stitch.. Aren't they cute!
