Our weekend at home

Seems like forever since we've just had a nice, quiet weekend at home and this weekend - we did just that! This morning we had swimming lessons and then we went to a birthday party for our neighbors who has twins (Jackson and Olivia) who turned 3 today. Alex loved playing with his friends and I'm pretty sure he loved the cake and ice cream too! Lauren did well also. Then we went to the zoo this evening so Alex could show dad the new grizzy bear exhibit - the kids of course loved the zoo. We were only there an hour or so (thank goodness for memberships) but Alex was able to see all of his favorite animals! And then this evening after dinner, dad started a bonfire in our backyard and Alex and Lauren had smores - can we say YUMMY! Lauren was especially excited about the smores! Here's some pictures....
