We took a recent family outing to Bonnie Springs to visit the petting zoo and see all of the animals. We skipped the Wild West Town this time, because it was $20 to get in (and there was only 1 show left) and we were all super hungry and wanted to go eat after seeing the animals (at least I was). We hadn't been in a few years, so long in fact, that Megan and Jackson did not even remember us ever going.
Megan told me that she is so happy she has a little sister.
Megan and Jackson with one of the peacocks. Right after this as we were walking in, one of the peacocks took off in flight and landed on the gate fence. It scared me almost to death.
I often see Eric carrying at least 2 kids like this. They all prefer him to carry them. I tell myself that it is because he is taller and can give them a better view, not because they like him better.
Sadie is my real animal lover kid. If she felt 100% better I am sure she would have been walking around with all of them. But instead she settled for some petting and waving to each of them that were in their cages.
This horse was huge. Like really, really big.
Me and the kids on the train. Eric and Sadie were on too, but Sadie threw a royal fit so Eric had to get off with her. Apparently train riding is not her thing.
As I mentioned I was starving, so we stopped at
Fudruckers and ate. Could Sadie be any messier?
We were gone for about 4 hours and Jackson had 6 bathroom breaks (One on the side of the road, just off the free-way). His bladder is killing me. However, one good thing did come of it. As we were leaving the restaurant I had all 3 kids in the bathroom with me. An older lady was in there also and said to me, "Those 3 kids can't be all yours, you don't look any older than a teenager." Let me tell you, when I was much younger these comments used to annoy me, but now that I am in my 30's I'll take them whenever I can get them.
I don't know if any of you listen to JACK FM, but if your formative years were during the 80's and 90's then you should. So the best part of my day came on the way home where I heard Patience (Guns N Roses), Shake Your Booty, and Jack and Diane. How happy am I that I have a husband that puts up with my crazy car singing and does some of his own.

Awww...looks like so much fun. I think it's great that you guys do "together" things with the kids. Ya, you don't look very old at all! Take all the compliments that you can get....
SO??? Did you like Fudruckers?
I love Bonnie Springs! I love free stuff that entertains kids!
