A Day At The Zoo!

We had the opportunity to go to the Tulsa Zoo with our good friends, the Chamlees. The weather was perfect and the kids (and parents!) had a great time! The last time we went to a zoo was when the twins were just a few months old so they really enjoyed seeing all of the animals.

Grammy came to town and Twins' birthday

Grammy drove down for a week to celebrate the twins' second birthday with us. We had a great week together and the twins had a wonderful birthday! It's hard for me to believe that they are already 2!!
Grammy brought her homemade playdough and playdough tools....FUN!
