Two Fun Outings

Casey took a couple vacation days this week so he could have a 5-day weekend. Yesterday was his big "clean and organize all the tools/junk/stuff in the garage and basement" day. I took the kids away so he could work, and we went to the Meijer Gardens and to Robinette's for lunch with my parents and my sister Karen.

Today was our family day, so we went to the zoo. After we saw all the animals, Casey and the kids took a swan boat ride on the pond at John Ball Park. Apparently the warm sun and the lull of the boat were very soothing, because Peter almost fell asleep! We went to Russ' for supper and played in the backyard tonight. It was a fun day, and we're excited that we can still look forward to having Daddy home for 3 more days this weekend!
