I love this time of year.
The weather is awesome, lovely sunsets, crisp cool air, amazing color everywhere...
We've found ourselves back into a routine. Kids up and at'em at 6:45 am. We have family scriptures, prayer and breakfast together. I like this so much better than last year where we did it in the evening. With the kids getting older and busier it was rare that we were all together at night. At least this way we get to eat at least one meal all together.
My goal is to be up by 5 am, get to the gym and back to get breakfast going before the kids are up. I haven't quite made it yet. With nightly feedings it's been a little challenging. But those will soon be over and back to the gym I go!
During the days I get to spend quality time with the 2 little boys. My twin sis Amy also has 2 little kiddos at home so we've taken a few outtings with them. It's reminded me of the old days where we used to get together all the time with our kids to do fun things. Over the years and 13 kids later it's just been really hard to hang out like we used to. But I've missed it.
One day we went to Tracy Aviary. It's fun for an hour or so, but there really isn't a lot to see. One of my favs was the owls. The eagles were also cool.
Why is my little boy missing his pants you ask?....He peed in he car on the way there....yes he's potty trained sort of.....
Another outing we went on was to the Zoo. We went with 3 of my sisters-Amy, Amber, Allison and their cute kids. It was a good day to be there. A lot of the animals were out and about. The bears were especially fun to watch.
In the mornings we like to go on walks, or jogs if I'm feeling ambitious. We pass this cute little site often.
Yep a Zebra and 2 Emus. So fun!
