A Day At The Park/Brock's 16th Birthday Party (April 17th, 2011)

After the storms and tornadoes on Thursday night and Friday morning, this weekend turned out to be really nice, unfornately we are in for more severe weather this week :(, but we will manage.

Sunday we celebrated Brock's 16th birthday with a family cookout at the park in Sherwood, it's hard to believe he's 16! Poor Marcy is going to need a nerve pill when he starts driving! It was a nice day to be outside, Jill, Adam, Laila, Blaine and little Parker were able to come down and Hayley was too! Of course Kinsey and Parker were glad to see each other and played so good together, Hayley was so happy to see her little sister, I think she was more excited to see her than Tom and me! We always enjoy getting together with the family, we always have a good time, and we enjoying the memories!

She was so excited!

She loved the swing!

Our Trip To The Zoo (April 10, 2011)

The weather in Arkansas has been absolutely GORGEOUS lately! So on Sunday, Tom and I (mostyly me) decided to take Kinsey to the zoo for the first time.  So, I planned out our whole afternoon, and on Saturday went and bought Kinsey a new pair of sandals, a new hat and bought me some shorts and flip-flops, on Sunday afternoon I put Kinsey in her sundress, new sandals, sunhat, and slathered her up with sunblock and we were off to the zoo!



Ready to go to the zoo!
As we were pulling up to the zoo, Kinsey started fussing in her seat, I thought to myself "Oh well, she's just ready to get out, once she gets in her stroller she'll be fine", so I got her out of her carseat, put in her the stroller, gave her some juice and she was fine.  We went to the penguin exhibit first, all the penguins were all out waddling around and Kinsey was watching them, so then I noticed we were close to the monkey exhibit, I just knew she would be interested in the monkeys.  So we walk over to the monkey exhibit, and we are watching them, I thought Kinsey was watching them too, until I looked down and she was fast asleep! She slept the rest of the time we were there and didn't see any of the animals, I couldn't believe it! But, Tom and I got some good pictures and even though he won't admit it, we had fun and it was a good chance for us to spend some time together.  But, Daddy and I have decided to wait at least 2 years before going back to the zoo!
