Summer is Here!

We kicked off the summer with a couple trips to the zoo. We have the year pass so we go to look at different parts whenever we have time. One of their new exhibits is the budgies. You can buy a stick with food on it and if you stand with the stick out a bird will land on it and eat the seed. It is really fun. Emma let the budgies be lazy and just put the stick on the wall. Owen was able to nab himself three. One is on his hand waiting for the others to finish and see if there is more seed. He didn't freak out or anything.

We also visited the Meerkats this time. They are so fun to watch; you can see them over the kids' heads. And yes, Emma broke her arm again. Third time the charm right? We hope anyway.

We also made cheerio necklaces. The kids are demonstrating the proper technique for eating the necklaces. It is a real skill.
