The girls were stoked to go to the zoo today. Before we headed there, we dropped Mr. Kevin off at the Pearl City Golf course so he could play. He'd been itching to get on a golf course. So while he did his thing, my mom and I set off for the zoo with my little monkeys. Hadley is completely obsessed with animals these days. Not just one animal, she loves them all. Riley has always enjoyed going to the zoo. Now that she's older she loves to ask questions and learn about the animals. She got to learn a little too much when we were checking out the chimpanzees. There was definitely a little more action than a child's eyes needed to be seeing. Riley asked what they were doing. I simply replied, "playing. Let's move on to the next exhibit." Hadley didn't want to walk, so Kiki gave her a piggy back ride! Leopards! They were pretty. Cheeeese! Emrey kept chasing the birds during our lunch stop We stopped and ate...
The girls had been waiting a long time for today. We took them to the movies to see Brave. They were so excited. Taking three kids to the movies is quite an event though. Riley, of course, is no problem. She's definitely old enough now. Hadley is good through the movie, but she's still too light for her seat to stay down. She still wants to sit by herself, so I have to hold her chair down with my leg. Then there is Emrey. This child wouldn't sit still unless she was eating some Reeses pieces. And I would only give her so many of those. Po was kind enough to walk out with Emrey and miss the last 10 minutes of the movie. My mom had walked out with her for a bit, but he didn't want her to miss the ending(where of course she cried!). It was a great movie and the girls really enjoyed it. Hadley got home and wanted to reenact the bear fight. My mom and I took the girls to the 50th State fair later in th...
Today was a perfect beach day. We went to my favorite place, The Bellows. You just can't go wrong with this beach. It's got such beautiful scenery and areas for shade to lay out our blanket. The girls absolutely love the beach. I honestly think Riley could stay from sunrise to sunset. Mr Kevin definitely enjoyed this day. He kept saying how beautiful it was and asking why we'd ever want to leave. We often ask ourselves that question when we are at the beach. Our girls are definitely spoiled by the Hawaii beaches. They see pictures of Ocean City and call the water nasty and dirty. Everyone had a blast playing in the sand and in the ocean. The best part was that nobody got stung by a man of war. Hallelujah! My mom did spot one in the water though, and Mr Kevin scooped it out. Riley found one washed up on the shore as well. We managed to not have any encounter with them stinging us though. ...
