A Visit From Our Niece

Our niece Kristen is currently in grad school about 6 hours away and she was able to take a long weekend to visit us! The kids were very excited to have a "playmate" for the weekend.

We paid a visit to the zoo. This was Lily's first time at the zoo. It's fun knowing that there are still "firsts" we get to share with our daughter.

Checking out the flamingos. We don't stay here long as the smell is not good!
Michael carried his map everywhere and checked it often. (he did the same thing in China at the Safari Park)
I actually got a picture of all 4 kids sitting still and smiling!





On the train - which is the kid's favorite part



Check out Michael going down the slide........still holding his map!
The next day we headed to our little downtown area.
The kids ran us out of change throwing all of it into the fountain!
There was a train for the kids to climb on , although most kids did not climb quite as high as Alex!
The conductor
Tyler loved the bell
We finished the visit with ice cream cones.........yum!

Here we are on the way home........doesn't Kristen look comfy?!

We all really enjoyed the visit and hope that we get to see Kristen again before she graduates and heads back home.
