Our First BIG Outing

 A friend called and asked if I wanted to go to the zoo with her. The moment she asked my anxiety went through the roof. We have not gone anywhere big since March 13th. For those of you counting, that is 15 weeks. I had to talk crazy Stephanie down a bit. I knew I had to leave the house eventually so why not go have some fun?

The kids were amazing! They were so excited to get out of the house and explore a bit. Man we missed this.

And even though the kids were REALLY good listeners, I wasn't prepared for how anxious I was going to be. Keeping them close, trying to keep them from touching things and stay away from people was exhausting!

Reddrick loved the train.

E's new favorite animal is the Red Panda. I can totally get on board with this choice. They are so dang cute!

The kids were awesome and wore their masks the entire time without complaint and while we had fun, it was different. The world has changed. It made me so sad that something we had once loved so much has been tainted but we are grateful that we got to go out and spend time with friends and have an adventure.
