Mom actually went to the zoo!




My mom actually made it to the zoo with me, my sister Stephanie, and her kids. It has been well more than a year since my mother has left the house to do something fun like this. Besides going to the movie maybe once a year, she doesn't get out. My mom suffer from poor health and although we persist that she get out of the house she has a difficult time doing it. We had such a great time. My mom's knees are messed up so it is difficult for her to walk. Stephanie and I promised if she went we would push her in the wheel chair. Little did we remember that the zoo if full of hills. We all about died laughing the first hill my sister went down with my mom. They were going so fast and out of control that she about killed both of them. Mom was a great sport and spoiled the grandkids with the train ride, merry-go-round and ice cream.

Yeah- a new post! We love the zoo. It is so much fun for the kids (and I bet Gavin loved having grandma there too).
