our week
On Weds I took all the kids to the Pittsburgh zoo. We had a great time! We left old grouchy pants at home! The weather was GREAT and there were no crowds!!! we saw zebras right by the fence, mama and baby elephant bathing, beavers building something, heard the lion roar, saw the polar bears swimming right in front of us in the under water tunnel, saw the 3 young tigers swimming and playing, and the snow leopard came right up to the glass and stood there! the sea lion trainers put on a show with the three sea lions!!! it was really cool seeing how well they responded to the hand signals!!! THey are better trained than most peoples dogs!!! IT was really great. Except of course I forgot my camera. Oh well.
Thursday I took the kids to the pumpkin patch at a nearby farm, they had fun, and I bought them some small pumpkins. They had fun petting 2 young cats there also. Another very nice day and no crowds. Gotta love it!
Today I did ebay shipping. Tomorrow we have the last soccer games.
Sunday & Monday are supposed to be very nice also, too nice to waste! We have CCD Sunday so I think Monday we will go to Living Treasures Animal Park. It will be our last chance to go this year! We'll leave grouchy at home! Since he refuses to do what I advise regarding the puppy, he can stay home with her, we will have more fun that way I can assure you! I may also take the kids to the Pittsburgh Science museum this coming week! Patrick has a dentist appt Tuesday though. I think we will do our lessons Sunday and then 2 days later in the week. Jeffrey and I talked and decided we liked the way the Sonlight schedules were set up, so I have created them for next week. I think 3 days a week is all we can handle at this point! When the snows come we can do more! But 3 will be good for now! I have to get some sort of plan down or I will never get to work with them as I'd like to!
