Hogle Zoo

It has been a very long time since I could take my kiddos to the Zoo. This winter has been extremely mild and we took the opportunity to go on a Saturday in January. NO SNOW! A warm 43 degrees. Kids loved it. I spent little money as my Dad and I caroled in our 1860's Dickens outfits this Christmas at the Hogle Zoo so we got four free tickets (he gave me his two free ones) and then we packed in our lunch. Such fantastic bonding time with them!


















































Pine Wood Derby, 2012

Mark once again did an amazing job with the boys and their Derby cars. William wanted his to look "cool" not so much win and Thomas wanted his to win and not care about looks. It ended up being the opposite for both of them. Williams car did great and placed 2nd on most races and Thomas'...well, he tried. His wheel had problems before the race started. Halfway through he race Thomas was running around the gym playing basketball, so he didn't really seem to care...which is good I guess.
