Lake Tobias































A visit to Lake Tobias with our neighbors was the highlight of our weekend. We couldn't have asked for a better day. We took a safari ride and stopped many times to feed all the animals. The one deer actually walked right on the bus so our driver enjoyed feeding him mouth to mouth. It was surprising to see just how friendly the animals were. The we took a walk into the petting zoo. The baby monkey was my favorite. Lake Tobias is so close to where we live; makes me wonder why we hadn't gone before this weekend. Lunch was good too. The adults tried buffalo burgers while the kids enjoyed chicken nuggests that were shaped in different kinds of animals. With a full belly, we headed home with peacock feathers : )

First Dentist Visit





Adam goes to the dentist for the first time! He did so well, actually really loved it! A tip my sister always told me was not never surprise your kids with doctor's appointments. So, we talked about it the entire day before his appointment about exactly what was going to happen and went through the steps on brushing, flossing, opening wide, and having to lie still. And we didn't forget to mention about the stickers at the end. But at this dental office, Adam got to pick two toys and two stickers. He was quite excited to pick up his brother Jonathan at school to share his prizes.

We spent Saturday morning at Touch a Truck. Firetrucks, ambulances, dump trucks, school buses, and so much more were everywhere. The boys loved climbing through them and touching everything. We even enjoyed the firemen's chicken bbq.
