Zoo Time

What a great weekend! Friday night Nik and I went to a Tincaps game. It was Nik's third time going and my first. The park is awesome! We were behind home plate, so there were several balls that were hit our way. Sometimes people weren't paying attention in the crowd, and a couple people got hit. Sometimes the ball would go on the roof behind us and come rolling back. That always freaked me out. My mom and dad and a close friend of the family came with them to the game and were able to get seats near us. Halfway through the game the people that were sitting beside me left and I had them come sit by us. I would love to go to another game, it was a lot of fun. It was also 80s night there at the ball park, so they were constantly flashing scenes from 80s movies on the large scoreboard and playing 80s music all night. During each inning, they also had fun games on the field that pre-picked kids went out and played. It was very entertaining.

We had some friends of ours watch the boys and they even kept them overnight! So Nik and I went to a bonfire after the game at our pastor's house and were out till 1am without the kids!! I didn't know what to do with myself. Hahahah... And the next morning when we went to pick up the boys, they were instantly upset that we were going to take them home and they couldn't stay and play longer. At least we know they weren't crying for us I guess. :)

Saturday we took them to the zoo. The African Journey exhibit is finally open after years in the making. It was pretty cool and a very large exhibit, I must say. I only wish some of the animals would have been a little more lively or closer up to the glass. But for the most part, it was pretty cool. Our boys were very whiny though and we didn't stay very long because of that. Jordan had a tummy ache and layed down in the wagon some of the time.

Sunday was great. I love our new church so much. We just have so many close friendships now and I look forward to going every week. Nik is helping out with the youth now and they are meeting every Monday night. God is good.
