Mother's Day 2010!

I had a great Mother's Day weekend!  I really wanted to go to the zoo, as we hadn't gone in awhile, so I decided we would have a family day on Saturday and go.  Unfortunately, when we got down there, it was just too cold and windy.  :-(  We were all pretty bummed.  

But we made the most of the day and headed to the Natural History Museum (Or Dinosaur Museum, as the kids call it)!  The kids love the dinosaur skeletons and exhibits.  They also love the fact that in the nature area, they have a fish tank complete with Nemo and his Dad, Dori, and Bubbles!  They also had a new section about the rise of computers, where Aurora got to play the very first computer game!

Sunday morning I woke up to a gorgeous day, and breakfast being made!  I was treated to breakfast, beautiful red and yellow roses, some homemade gifts, and a whale from Alex.  After I opened them all and said thank you and gave hugs and kisses, Alex told me he wanted the whale back!  Haha!

The morning was so beautiful that we decided to go ahead and make the trip to the zoo.  It was a great decision.  The weather was perfect!  They had some new exhibits (including 15 feet crocodiles!), and some babies, and all of the animals were out enjoying the weather.  What a great weekend!
