Icey Fun in the Summer and Other Creatures

Today was a perfect summer day!  We all got to do something we love.  We spent the morning at the San Diego Zoo checking out Kaleb's favorite animals - the snakes.  





Then we had lunch together followed by delicious soft serve ice cream cones.  Olivia's cone was bigger than her but she managed not to make a mess of herself.  After our sweet treats we walked Kaleb over to the Science Center for Solar Systems and Beyond camp which he will be attending all week.  He loves learning about the planets and thus far is having a great time at camp.  

The we headed to Olivia's favorite The Natural History Museum. Nathaniel and Olivia played at the new Polar exhibit where they dressed up and played penguins.




They slid down ice glaciers.

and explored the exhibits.



Then we headed back to Nathaniel and my favorite place the zoo.  We visited the children's petting zoo where Olivia made a new best friend.   She was not afraid to get too close.  In fact, one of the keepers released a cylander full of snacks for the goats and sheep to enjoy and guess who was in the middle of the pack?  I was afraid she was going to get trampled by the animals yet she thought it was so fun to get pushed around by them.   



Nathaniel enjoyed petting them too.  


We then picked up Kaleb from camp and headed over to the Fassett home for some fun friend time and dinner.  Angela cooked a delicious steak dinner and we had ice cream sundaes for dessert.  The kids (8 total kids) played while Angela and I had a nice time chatting.  

What a perfect day!
